The invention relates to a method and a device for producing coloured glasses. The aim of the invention is to obtain a particularly intimate mixture and to enable a quick change of the melt at the same time. To this end, the following procedure steps are applied: a melt made of a compound or fragments of glass is produced, the glass melt is further processed in at least one additional vessel, the melt is supplied to a skull device (3) (skull pot or skull channel) during subsequent processing, a dye is supplied (6, 6.1) to the melt after the melt was in the melting station (1) but before the melt enters the skull device (3) or while said melt is in the skull device.
