Default Anneling schedule interrupted

I had to shut down my klin last night and I'm concerned my beads have not anneled correctly. They had soaked at 955 1 1/2 hours and then ramped down to 726 before I was forced to shut down the klin, I had to unplug it. The door was left closed the rest of the night. Would that be enough, or should run them thru another program? and if so, what would be best? I usually work hot so I haven't done this before. Thank you for any suggestions

If it is a brick kiln, I would consider that annealed. They soaked for an appropriate amount of time at the annealing temp and had ramped down past the strain point.

I have a paragon blue bird brick klin. So it sounds like the beads should be okay?

should be. It probably took several hours to reach room temp. As long as it was a controlled ramp down past the strain point and a slow cool down from there that's what really matters

I agree with Leslie.
