Following are some downloadable pdf files containing technical information that I have used with my students at Augusta University (formerly Augusta State University, Augusta College, and Georgia Regents University).  The glaze recipes have been all been used and tested, though there is always the possibility that your materials and mixing conditions may vary from what we have used, yielding variations in results.
