Start temperature assumed: 25°C or 75°F
"Fahrenheit degrees" is not the same as "degrees Fahrenheit". A 100° reading on a Fahrenheit thermometer is equal to a 37° reading on a Celcius thermometer. But "100 Fahrenheit degrees of temperature change" is equivalent "55 Celsius degrees of change". That is an important distinction to understand the above temperature conversions.

These manganese-colored Bory 1 crystals were grown on White Stallion porcelain using the FSCGB1 firing schedule. The piece was fired in an electric kiln to 1260°C.
