Inkqubo yokwenza ibhotile iquka amanqanaba amabini angundoqo: ukubunjwa kunye nokuhlobisa. Iinkqubo ezahlukeneyo zinika iibhotile ukuthungwa okukodwa kunye nokubonakala.
Ukubunjwa kusisiseko sokwenza ibhotile kwaye ngokuyintloko iwela kwiindidi ezintathu: Ukudubula, okusetyenziselwa kakhulu kwiibhotile ze-ceramic, kubandakanya ukuxova, ukubumba, kunye nokulungisa udongwe, emva koko ukudubula kwi-oven kwi-800-1300 degree. Abanye bafuna ukukhenkceza okwesibini kunye nokudubula. Imveliso egqityiweyo idibanisa ukuphefumla kunye nokubaluleka kwenkcubeko. Ukuvuthela yinkqubo yebhotile yeglasi eqhelekileyo, eyahlulahlulwe kwiindlela zemanyuwali kunye noomatshini. Ukuvuthela ngezandla kuxhomekeke kumagcisa ukubumba iglasi enyibilikisiweyo ngomlomo, okukhokelela kwisimbo esidlamkileyo nesingaqhelekanga. Ukuvuthela ngomatshini kusebenzisa ulawulo lwezixhobo ezichanekileyo ukufezekisa imveliso yobuninzi obuqhelekileyo, ukuvelisa iibhotile ezinokucaca okuphezulu kunye nokuthungwa okufanayo. Ukuqulunqwa komatshini kufanelekile kwiibhotile zetsimbi (ezifana ne-aluminium kunye neebhotile zentsimbi) kunye neebhotile zokhuni. Iibhotile zentsimbi zenziwe ngokugximfizwa, ukuzolula, kunye nokuwelda, ngelixa iibhotile zokhuni zenziwe ngokusika, ukusila kunye nokudityaniswa. Le ndlela isebenza kakuhle kwaye ifanelekile kwimveliso yobuninzi.
Ubuchule bokuhombisa buphucula ukuvakaliswa kweebhotile zewayini, kubandakanywa ukukhazimla (ukuphucula ukukhazimla kunye nokumelana namanzi kwiibhotile zeceramic), ukupeyinta kunye nokukrola (isandla-ipeyinti epeyintiweyo okanye imizobo ehonjisiweyo ukuqaqambisa ubugcisa), ukuhombisa (i-gilding eneenkcukacha ukongeza ukubamba kobunewunewu), kunye nokulalisa (ukuncamathisela kwimathiriyeli ye-lenze kunye ne-brown. Obu buchule bunokwenza izitayile ezahlukeneyo ukuhlangabezana neemeko ezahlukeneyo kunye neemfuno zobuhle. Ukukhethwa ngokubanzi kobuchule kufuneka kuthathelwe ingqalelo iimpawu zezixhobo kunye neemfuno zoyilo, ukulinganisa ukusebenza kunye nobugcisa.
