There used to be plans or instructions floating around for the Murphy Fire Bucket. A couple YouTube videos with Gil Reynolds but I don't know if they include how to. Can't link on this tablet, sorry.

If you do batch anneal, put the beads in a cold kiln and ramp up slowly, not full blast.
Also, on your flattened beads, make sure there is a mandrel thickness of glass on both sides. If not, there...

It's not so much the long exposure, although that could certainly contribute, it's probably a combo of the glass being too close to the torch face, getting too much soot from the propane or Mapp. ...

The kiln mats are refractory cloth, usually rated to 1800F.

Those look like they have Olympia Rain stringer squiggles under or over the encasing. Unfortunately I don't think that glass is available any longer. Someone might know of a substitute. I used to...

Olympic Colors is up in Seattle if you like the Reichenbach colors. They also have dichroic coated frit for sparkle, but it's pricey. Have you tried mica flakes?

Some opaque colors do get those streaks, especially greens. But if your glass is getting sooty while warming it, I think your propane might be set too high and/or your oxycon not dialed in enough. Or...
