How Hot?

The small, 4" & 6', molds have not slumped I reset the temp. to 1275 degrees. Hold time is 10 minutes

Just how hot can the mold go before they crack? The glass is only a single layer of fusing glass.

It is a new kiln, skutt Hot start, and I am using the preprogramed settings. The insturation are confusing for me.

The firing was medium speed and slump with a soak of 1225 for 15 minutes

Just what all this means i am still learning.

Why want it slump?

I put one piece of glass, not the heat glass just regural glass, in the kiln and it didn't slump in the mold. Won't regural glass slump or does it need to be hotter to slump. there are just so many beautiful glass it seems a shame not to try a few.
