RE: Groovy Pouch and cooling an LP record

the pouch does NOT have a temperature adjustment control, and i dunno that it makes any difference 'where' in the world a person would be using it (in terms of C vs F, etc). prolly best to just call or email the maker in Kansas and ask him.

also...i have the original model of VF. his 'current' model is advertised as 'improved' in terms of weight/size of the Flat unit, supposedly to improve (decrease) time needed, etc....so i can't tell you how YOUR unit might respond.

best is to place your record into the VF, then in to the Pouch, then plug it in to the wall, TRY the minimum recommended times, see how they work for you, and go from there.

just repeat the process, using longer cook/cool times, if your initial session isn't enough. all of us users seem to have a different approach, in terms of time cooking/cooling, etc, so just play around with it and see how YOU like to use it. i've NEVER had a problem with melting/damage of any kind from this unit and it's Pouch, as it warms very slowly...and not very 'hot', so i wouldn't worry too much about that. again, just start with the minimum, and increase in subsequent sessions if your record hasn't flattened. i've never had to do more than two sessions on a warped record, and nowadays, using my 12 hour method (again, on MY unit), i only need one session per record.
