Just answered part of my question by reading the manual (duh). Says timing starts after a waiting period of 3 minutes after reaching at least 95C. Not sure if the timer then stops if it goes below 95C, but my timer definately stopped at 20 min and never restarted, even with the temp at 95.

I've been reading a lot lately about kegerators, keezers, and long run beer dispensing researching options for my setup. (There are a lot of great discussions in this group.) I ran across this vendors explanation, with diagrams, and thought it worth sharing. I searched for the definitive thread...
