With the little coupons they cool to 120? when I pull them from the oil after 15 seconds. The forge stays a pretty steady color once heated up. it is definitely a lot hotter than 1500? though. I check the metal frequently and catch it on the way up each time I do a coupon. The part of the coupon near the front of the forge is always a bit cooler because I grab it with tongs to check it with the magnet each time. Im not sure if this is part of the problem or how to get around this.
