I will try the template method and see how that goes...

I had tried applying 2 curves (pre and main behmor curves) but they dont reflect  consecutive time - they're represented concurrently.

Am I doing that incorrectly? I can time shift for the behmor roast prior to beginning but doesnt allow me to alter the control values and I'm unsure I could even extend the roast only in the beginning node.

thanks for your thoughts.

Steve

Hi Danny,

I've probably spent more time with this app than I should have! My understanding of databases is probably the cause.

I've begun logging past roasts into the app and still find it less than intuitive. Using the ipad version helps greatly.

The idea of copying curves and then pasting and altering to fit custom preheat/program combos works but not well.

My workflow with Behmor and the app is to load the saved curves from other roasts and paste into current roast. Thing is I would prefer to have a curves list to work from so that I can call up any of them I want once they've been created. I see that standard behmor curves will auto populate once all criteria are selected - I added Preheat options to the custom setting types as recommended but I have yet to see how they tie in to the DB.

Thanks so much

Steve

Some more info for you - I'm told I have a tendency to over-explain....!

I followed your directions and created the custom setting type called "preheat" then entered 5 settings labeled "P1 - 1:00" and so forth in :15 increments.

I've tried several trial roasts and don't know if I'm a knucklehead (its possible) or just thinking about it the wrong way.

I want to augment the Behmor profiles with the pre heat time. Entering the custom setting type doesn't effect the curve. I start a test roast. Put settings in dialog for Behmor P1 and run for 1:15, pause the roast, changed the settings in dialogs to P4D and restart roast. Profile changes to represent the roast as if it had started on P4.

Clearly I'm not grasping something - do I need to copy the curves, alter and rename?

Thanks very much for your prompt response!

I require a little further drilling down. I've entered my inventory, and I'm ready to do a pseudo-roast. Lets say I want to do a P1 preheat of 1:45 and then the P4D program. I'm not using a thermocouple so temps are purely from the Behmor Program and duration.

I would like to represent the preheat and regular program in one graph as a single roast - is that possible?

Thanks again!

Steve

Hello,

Just purchased your app last night - comprehensive and visually interesting - thanks for that!

I'm using the Behmor 1600 - about 40 roasts so far. I've found it best to run anywhere from a 1:15-1:45 preheat program on P1 then hit off and enter a full program immediately after. ie P3C or P4D.  How would I enter that data in curves?

Thanks so much!

Steve
