We code each box of New Mexico Clay with a date and batch number.
Each batch is tested for shrinkage, fired color, and absorption.
Pentrometer scale is roughly:

5- Soft like for school kids,
6-Medium, most hobbyist clays in the cone 6 range,
7-Firm, most professional potters prefer firm clay,
8-Hard for slab rollers or Ram pressing. (lower shrinkage}
