Hi Brian
Agree, the chiller you engage only when pushing limits , depends on top
load componentry .
Brian , enlighten me :
165, 175, 160 (dip?) , 160(why?), 185, 245, ?(no cooling?) .
Somehow my Indium profile looks different .
What is the reason for dwell on 160 2x, and how do you cool ?
With ALL bottom zones blowing ambient ; the separation is nice indeed .
Can you get me an info on what ( in 'C's ) is achievable ?

thanks
Paul Klasek
