    Temp held pretty consistent between 535 down to 500. Had to add about a tablespoon of salt part way through to top up the level. Bit of tweaking on the Lee melter temp level to try to keep temp constant. Found that between 6 and 7 was about right and adjust accordingly based on the temp reading trend.

    Interesting to see how the brass had different colouring when it's been heated to the same temp (given the brass can only heat to the temperature of the molten salt)
