The washing machine as a bubble-killer is a FREKIN' GREAT idea!!!!

Ribs are the ultimate argument to vegetarians - if you're not supposed to eat innocent big-eyed cute animals, how come they taste so good with Char Siu Sauce on 'em? Huh? Huh, ya skinny limp-necked vegan? Huh???

And I don't think the breakage has anything to do with the intensity of the heat, I think it's the ramp-up. You gotta build up the heat slow, Joe. I have no suggestions as to HOW to do it, but I remember some raku is simply done at the beach in a big pit. It can't be that hard. First year community college pottery hippies do it all the time. Are you using the right clay??

Hey, I think Big Mikester ("MP" on TC) is a glaze/firing monster pro and could advise you...
