I am offering this service.
Ceramic pot making noise.
I m not sure but it s possible that the ceramic material was relieving stress.

When you hear a pinging pot it typically isn t complete cause for alarm but instead it s a beginner s mistake that can happen.
The effect on the bottom picture is by using a raku setup with a crackle white glaze that cracks by the rapid cooling before entering the reduction smoke chamber.
Every 15 mins to an hour they make a high pitched ping type of noise.
I make sound fx for people to use in their projects.
That is the material had many defects in it s structure like the ones described in this wiki page and the heat from the water gave the structure enough energy to relax and heal them i ve witnessed a ceramic cup that started to make bell like noises when i poured myself a tea in it an.
It s a rather chaotic process and usually loud.
The odd thing is.
If you do this it can actually make the pot explode so always be careful.

I have 2 beautiful bowls that came out of the kiln several days ago.
I am new to wheel thrown pottery.
When the water reaches its boiling point bubbles start to form near the bottom of your pan because the bottom is closer to the heat source.
The mixture of temperatures causes stress on the pot.
Inside these bubbles are water vapor which rises to the top and pops.
