Glass‐drawing pots made from Gross Almerode clay proved to be superior in a service test to pots made from a synthetic siliceous domestic clay mixture. When removed from service the faces of the Gross Almerode pots are pitted. The faces of domestic clay pots are surface cracked. The blistering of the glass caused by this cracking is eliminated by substituting silica brick grog for fire clay grog.
