Full fuse firing schedule for coaster (the layers of glass will melt together and have no texture left):

 Full Fuse 
 300 dph 600º F 30 min
 300 dph 1000º F 30 min
300 dph 1100º F 10 min
50 dph 1250º F 20 min
500 dph 1480º F  10 min
AFAP 960º F 45 min
 100 dph 800º F 0 min
 200 dph 700º F 0 min
 400 dph 100º F 0 min

[Assumptions: 2 layers of standard thickness glass (3mm or 1/8") stacked to make a thickness of 6mm or 1/4"] 

The firing schedule is fairly conservative, so you shouldn't have any breakage.  However, please note that this firing schedule is just a general guideline.  It is up to the user to take into acount their glass fusing setup and design, materials used and kiln being used to yield their desired results.  

dph = degrees per hour (Fahrenheit)
AFAP = as fast as possible, represented by 9999 when programming your kiln
min = minutes
