Thanks guys! I noticed the following day the tang was noticeably less so evidently the ECA dissipates a little. Its quite a bit
better now.
The PID worked great ramping up the heat, went from 110-170, 10*an hour. It was a learning experience, like I learned
not to make your sausages longer than the vacuum seal bags that you have on hand.
And a 2.20 inch casing is exactly Ritz
cracker size which is good to know.
