Learn the key techniques, tips, and tricks for pit, barrel, raku, and wood firing.Fall in love with flames, wood, and the effect that unique firing methods have on pottery. Move beyond the electric kiln and explore the dramatic surfaces of raku, the flashes of salt firing, and the rustic look of ash rivulets. In this book, Lindsay Oesterritter provides a crash course in the most accessible methods of alternative firing.
Raku firing requires minimal equipment and can easily be fueled with a standard propane tank. Likewise, pit and barrel firing do not require much in the way of initial investment. Yet all these techniques provide an immediate glimpse into the magic of firing. Bright reds and blues, dramatic black and white crackle, even metallic luster are instantly possible. For more experienced potters and studios looking to offer more, Oesterritter also explores wood-fired kilns. Drawing on years of experience and extensive interviews with fellow wood-fire potters, there is no comparable resource on the market.
Features on top potters working today get to the heart of specialty techniques and asides show firing variations and traditional kilns in different cultures around the world. A gallery of showstopping work from a diverse group of artists round out the package and inspire you to get started.
The Mastering Ceramics series is for artists who never stop learning. With compelling projects, expert insight, step-by-step photos, and galleries of work from today's top artists, these books are the perfect studio companions.

Just as described
Like I needed one more thing on my countertop! But it's coffee, so I'll make it work out. This is first product of it's type that I've used. I've seen it offered in coffee shops and thought that slower drip process must create a nice coffee. So, I've tried and I love it. Just follow the instructions, and get the filters at the same time or pick some up at your grocery store. If you're like me, you'll want to try it out right away.
I enjoy a dark roast and this really improved the flavor of my usual brand of coffee. The only thing that concerns me is the beaker is made of pretty thin glass. I'm wondering if thicker glass would also help to keep the brew hot as I make enough for two cups. Overall, I'm really happy to have found this.

Durable glass coffee container, nice to use
Previously, we were using an old metal coffee can to store our coffee. The problem is that because it was not transparent, we found ourselves frequently running out of coffee. Out of sight, out of mind.
This glass container lets us see how much coffee we have left, but the fact that the glass bottom didn't appear to be reinforced had concerned me somewhat, particularly because our kitchen counter is hard ceramic tile.
Well, it seems that these glass containers are made of borosilicate glass, which is a special glass made with boron that has superior strength and durability. Apparently, borosilicate glass is made at a higher temperature, and slowly cooled to room temperature in a process called annealing. Annealing involves controlled cooling to relieve internal stresses and improve the strength and durability of the glassware. Still, I wish that the base of the glass container was thicker, like most bottles and jars.
The lid fits on snug and airtight, and there is a button on top that you can push to pump out air and create a vacuum seal. I cannot comment on the worth of this nifty aspect, as the taste of our coffee has not noticeably changed after we began storing our beans in this container.
Still, it is a nice container, it looks nice, appears to function well, and hasn't cracked yet. It even comes with a small sturdy steel coffee scoop. And we get to see our coffee all day long.

High quality
Bottom line - highly quality vacuum container - would recommend for use with products that are not used daily.
Ordered this for use to store my whole coffee beans. The product appears well crafted and the glass is high quality. After washing and drying the product, I loaded it up with a pound of coffee and this sealed extremely well. It is pretty much impossible to remove the lid without using the release to break the vacuum.
However, after using this for a few days I started to feel like it was a little more work than I wanted to do on a daily basis. It seems to take a while until the button stayed down at the recommend level - I'd rather just push a button once, slid the lid on and release to seal the container than have to push the button 30-40 times to get a vacuum seal.
If you stock up on coffee when there is a good sale, I still wouldn't recommend this for longer term coffee storage, simply because it is a clear container - coffee slowly degrades when exposed to light so it should be an opaque material. I am now using this to store my ground corn (polenta) to ensure it stays fresh and keeps any bugs out that may get into the pantry - after one experience with pantry moths, I don't take chances and now put all my grain in good quality containers. Since I only make polenta about once a month, I don't mind the time/effort it takes to reseal.
Overall, this seems to be a well crafted and high quality product. However, it does seem to be a little on the expensive side for what you get and just didn't work out for me (as originally intended). Fortunately, I did find a good use for it.

Awesome!
I have tried so many ways of keeping my coffee beans fresh. This cannister is the winner! It is a very high quality container made of Borosilicate Glass which has provided me the protection I need in order to maintain freshness. I am happy, beyond description, with how well this works! The wide mouth allows easy access to the beans until the last is used. And when it is time to clean it, I can easily wipe it out as well as put it in the dishwasher since it is also dish washer safe. I will consider getting a second one for storing other items that I want to keep fresh as well as visible (like cookies, etc).

For serious coffee connoisseurs
I got this coffee canister because I know that my coffee connoisseur, son will be staying at our home for a few months this spring. He invests in very good quality coffee beans and grinds his portions as needed. I know that this glass vacuum type jar will do the trick in keeping the beans fresh so that the oils don't dry out. My husband and I use a flip top hinged canister for our more regular grind and the speed at which my husband drinks coffee means that it's usually quite fresh without the vacuum additional feature. I would caution that it took a hot minute to figure out how it work and wasn't easy to get open the first time outta the blocks. Read the instructions so you get familiar with home the air is extracted and how to release the pressure to open the canister.
