I work my reds on the cool side. I have been lampworking for 11 years now. The old medium red was very reliable, the new one goes very dark on me so I have switched to light red for when I want bright red. Here's one tip that may help: the more you take it in and out of the flame the more it is likely to get brownish. I work my reds further out in the flame also, not too close to the candles. I have a minor burner.
