Calibration is the process of checking for temperature variations within the kiln. Two 3-cm-square pieces of glass are stacked on top of each other and placed at the four corners and in the center of the shelf; they are then fired, and the temperature distribution is determined based on differences in how they melt.

We always do this whenever we switch kilns.
