I have the timing and temp somewhere but it’s not long.
I put the first one in for 130 secs and it was faded, but I think I didn't have the clamp tight enough. The 2nd in for 160 secs and it was fine, but the colours in the badge didn't look very bright. Then the 3rd one I think I spent too long trying to get tape on the bottle and completely messed up the timings.

The other thing to be careful of with these is getting the pressure correct. Too much pressure and after pressing you can end up with a slight deformation on the bottle as they soften slightly. You can end up with a slight "ridge" where the two sides of the press come together at the top.
