You can use the schedules on this site (https://fusedglass.wpengine.com/tools/firing_schedules) with the following changes:
- Increase the top temperature by 100° F (55° C) . For example, the schedules on this site recommend full fusing most projects at 1475° F (800° C). For float, you will get simillar results at 1575° F (857° C). For slumping you may not need the full 100° F.
- Begin your anneal at 1030° F (554° C) – instead of the 960° F in the schedules.
- Change the mid annealing point (where the rate changes) from 800° F to 900° F (482° C).
- Finish annealing at 800° F (427° C) instead of the 725° in the schedules.
That should work for most window and bottle glass.
