I am working on a minor and want some more heat.....if I add a second oxy con to my set up will I lose all the beautiful colors I now get out of my minor with raku?

Nope! I have 2 oxycons, and get better color now than I did before.

Crystal, you will be able to get better color with the 2 oxy cons without as much effort. With a hotter flame, you'll be able to burn through the color progression faster than with only one concentrator. Not to mention everything will be faster, encasing is also much easier. I love my second oxy con and don't know how I worked without it!

True..... you'll have more control over the glass effects and more speed. You can still
run the exact same flame as before whenever you want. The torch valves limit the flow no matter what the pressure is. So, think of it the same as before, but the valves
on the torch can now let more through when you open them more.
