Pinched Pottery on Instagram: "4oz pinched cups in espresso. I named this clay “espresso”, it’s actually a mix of 3 different brown clays that I loved but unfortunately discontinued. I also added in coarse grog as well. Started with a ball of clay about 220-230g and as always, rough shaped them first then let them dry until they are firm enough to be handled without losing their shape to do the final shaping/pinching. I didn’t need any tools for these. Raw inside and out - fired twice, bisque fired at cone 04 then glazed fired at cone 6 without any glazes on. Sealed with @liquid_quartz_sealer.

DJ Does Pottery on Instagram: "Making a chip bowl 🥔

What is grog?! Grog is a combination of alumina, silica, and other minerals or can even be finely ground specks of previously fired clay that has been crushed. Grog is used to strengthen clay since the particles allow for structural reinforcement. This means that the clay is stable and less likely to crack in the drying process—and makes for great hand-building (especially for bigger pieces like this one)!

Joseph Bounds on Instagram: "These are some of the clays I use frequently, I have used many others in the past, so this technique is certainly not limited to just these…

Orangestone with grog - made by Highwater clay. Works best with some grog added (I’m using the term “grog” loosely here as a “catch-all” term for any sort of gritty addition to your clay, kyanite, quartz, and mullite as alternative examples)

Helios porcelain - from Highwater clays. You can see with this one the natural character of the clay (dried slightly), it tends to not tear easily and sticks to itself even when partially dried.

Helios with grog - grog helps clay tear apart more easily, this gives a sharper line to the cut and is easier to control. Watch again and you’ll see the distinct difference in behavior in t Kurinuki Pottery, Clay Works, Coil Pots, Ceramic Techniques, Pottery Techniques, Add Me, Pottery Ceramics, Different Kinds, Grog

Joe Thompson on Instagram: "How to get smooth bottoms without a lot of sanding.

Firstly, don't pick a clay with a lot of course grog. Even if you get the piece smooth at this stage, the grog will add a rough texture when fired. A clay with minimal and/or fine grog will work much better in this regard.

Secondly, trim and burnish the clay with a rib at the right level of dryness. You can get an almost glossy shine if you get the timing right (not too wet, not too dry) and this smoothness will remain after the firing.

All I do afterwards is a quick pass of 60, 120, and 240 grit @diamondcoretools pads to get the bases buttery smooth. Of course, you can skip the first two points and still sand pieces equally smooth, but it's much easier to smooth out soft clay than fully fired clay!
