A small pot for testing called iromitsubo is used to confirm the conditions of the glazing during firing. 5-6 iromitsubos are placed inside each chamber and are taken out in order to control the firing. This is a process relying on intuition from experience. Iromitsubos are also used to determine the timing for finishing the firing.
"Day-to-day movie heaven and earth."
