Quote from Paramax55:
This, in just a few words, explains the process very nicely.As far as dwell time... I've noticed that it seems when my pucks are done, they are done.
I'll put the initial squeeze on them and the pressure will back off within a couple of minutes.
Then it will back off again one or two times over the next 20-30 minutes. After that, it remains steady - even overnight.
Letting off and redoing the pressure would be easy to try.
Once the under pressure powder has settled into its most compact state it will not press any further.
It just takes a few minutes at each stage of pressure to reach the desired end result.
