Not cold enough!?!

[KLITE]

Hi all

I cant get the material inside the tubes being put in the freezer to go much bellow -3C, cans at nearly -30 and so is the steel of the tube, but material inside doesnt get any colder. Some chickpeas i have in there are at -20, does the airy nature of the material create an insulating quality that doesnt allow it to reach lower temperatures? Or am i just stupid, i consider that too..

It just makes it harder to measure its temperature. The laws of thermodynamics tell us that the material will drop to the same temperature as its surroundings, even though it may take longer to reach that temperature, than a liquid or piece of metal, because of boundary layers and K values.

For extraction or dewaxing?

im guessing his tubes aren't getting cold enough so that he can avoid dewaxing..
