Preheating mug bases

[pisquee]

If you have a hot heat press, - sit your mugs on top of the platten to warm up

We do that with slates - 4 slates pre-heating on top, while 4 are printing in the press

The main mugs we use have a big base, so need to be warmed through, so has become our standard work flow now regardless of type of mug printed.

Hi all. I'm new on here. How do you start a new thread? Can't see an option anywhere? I want to ask other members advice on a Freesub ST-210 double mug press settings. The instructions in the box are not very good! I have used the press with great results with the following settings. Pre-heat 170c Pressing heat 180c Pressing time 120s I always Pre-heat my mugs for 10s before applying the wrap. Would like to know if my Pre-heat temp is too high as it says factory default is 100c. As I set mine at 170c, will this damage my machine? Thanks in advance.

So just wondering what do people mean by spoiling the mugs due to preheating because judging by what everyone else is doing, I'm seriously over doing it
