Review the Results
A properly bent cone indicates that the kiln is functioning properly and accurately. The tip of the
cone will be level with the top of the cone’s base when fired properly. The diagram below will give you
an idea of a properly fired, under fired, and over fired cone. Some variations from a proper bend is
expected and can be compensated for with the cone offset adjustment for each particular cone number
based on test firings.
