Hi Rick,

    Just this week, due to a power outage just as I turned my kiln down
    from 1350, I had to wait over 12 hours to cast.  I simply brought my
    temperature back up to casting temp, let it soak for an hour, and all
    was good, no problem with the castings.  I have had this occur on
    several occasions and have never had a mold break or any other
    adverse affect from having the flasks cool and then be reheated. 
    Good luck! 

John
