    What's the correct amount of pressure?

    Have got two mug presses; a galaxy mug press pro and a Freesub ST-210 dual mug press. I've always thought the pressure should be just right enough to grip the mug without the mug moving, but seem to get poor results more often than not around the edges.

    I tried one mug in the Freesub press today that was full top to bottom coverage, and got good results, so just curious what you guys all do pressure wise.

    We're to move onto a Vacuum oven in a couple of months but haven't got the funds at the moment so tempted to buy anothe of the Freesub presses for the time being so we can do 5 mugs at once but want to get the pressure right on the presses we've got first.

    I find its trial and error until you get the result you want. I went through about 10 mugs setting up my mug press. I wrote the time, heat and pressure on the bottom of the mug so i was able to refer and compare

    just enough, - the blanket will bed in as you use it, - so you may have to adjust through the months.
    If you have it very tight, - I suspect the blanket doesn't last as long .....
