Temperature Cycling Procedures Samples are then cured at 45°F for 14 days. Samples are then temperature cycled from 45°F to 180°F to 45°F as described below: Samples are placed in a 96°F water bath for 1 hour. Samples are placed in a 180°F water bath for 4 hours. Samples are placed in a 96°F water bath for 1 hour. Samples are placed back in a 45°F water bath. The samples are cycled once per day during the cycling period.
