Hey there, young potter! 🌟 Let’s dive into a fun measurement that will help you as you mix glazes and make amazing pottery! First, you need to know what fluid ounces and milliliters are. They both measure liquids, just like how you might measure water or slip for your clay projects. In our case, 1
Salt glaze flashing stage (Cone 9 to °F)
Okay, let’s talk about something really cool in pottery! When potters make their pieces, they put them in a special oven called a kiln to heat them up. There are different temperatures for different types of pottery, and today we’re focusing on something called the salt glaze flashing stage, which happens when the kiln is
450 milliliters (mL) to cups (US)
Hey there! Let’s explore how to change 450 milliliters to cups. Think of it like mixing clay and water for your pottery projects, where measuring is super important. First, we need to know that 1 cup (US) is about 236.6 milliliters. So, to find out how many cups are in 450 mL, we can use
5.25 Pints to Milliliters (mL)
Hey there, little potter! 🌟 Today, we’re going to learn about measurements—specifically how to change pints into milliliters. When you’re working with pottery, it’s super helpful to know how much liquid you have, especially if you’re mixing glazes or other materials.

Liters are a unit we use to measure liquids, and when you’re working with different recipes, it’s sometimes helpful to change these measurements into something else. In the United States, we often use cups
Burnishing Stage (350°C to °F)
When you’re making pottery, there’s an important process called burnishing. This happens when the clay is heated to 350 degrees Celsius. This temperature is really hot, and it helps make the surface of the clay smooth and shiny. Now, to understand how hot 350°C is, we can change it into Fahrenheit using a special equation:
