Question from a new refiner here...I will be attempting the AP process on some gold plated header pins. Have read through many many informative posts, seen the videos on Steve's site, as well as read through much of Hoke. Thanks for all of the great information.
My main question I have is on the impact of Ambient Temperatures on the reaction. I'd like to keep the reaction outdoors to mitigate any fume issue, but wondering how ambient night temps in the 30's will affect the reaction? My assumption is that lower ambient temps will slow the reaction? Anyone have experience with this?
Other option I considered was using a crockpot which would eliminate the concern, but I'd rather start simple and get more familiar with the process/chemicals/ reaction etc.
Many thanks for any suggestions.
