Done Batching



After 48 hours in the roaster I rinsed the warps. The violet is not as bright as I hoped but the turquoise is brilliant - as are the reds. Despite being taken in the dark basement under fluorescent lights the colors are pretty true.



Yet another use for the roaster! Just set the dial for about 100°.
