Method for avoiding blisters on precious metal components

In a method for producing glass, is at least partially surrounded in the molten glass from the noble metal walls or Refraktarmetallwanden and in which the oxygen partial pressure of the molten glass to avoid interference by means of a treatment agent is affected, often gas bubbles or other disorders caused by over-compensation in turn. This overcompensation can be prevented in that placing at least one probe (20) for determining the oxygen partial pressure at the interface or the surface-near area of ​​the molten glass / metal wall, and that the influence of oxygen partial pressure with the treating agent by means of a control (39, 45) regulates in a secure area of ​​the oxygen partial pressure.
