I looked to see if someone suggested a temperature / time, didn't see 
it.  Can you suggest what would work.

Also, I've got some friends following on an audio group who are 
attempting to restore and transcribe tapes, wondering if there might be 
anything you can recommend, given that media is thinner, and the data is 
analog, not digital in nature.

If too far off topic on the latter, still wondering on the baking 
process experiences and recommendations.

thanks
