Hotend Temperature sinking bevore nozzle cleaning
The hotend temperature drops to 170 °C before nozzle cleaning, even though it was already at the correct temperature. After bed probing, I have to wait again for the hotend temperature to rise. Is there a reason for this? If not, does anyone know how to fix it?

Please take a look at my signature. Tested with 6.4.0 and now again with 6.2.6 – works very well.

Well said Joan (seven times of was it 8?*)
so if we are already up to temperature, is it beneficial to cool to 170 C before heating back up to temperature?
Perhaps the cooldown helps to avoid ‘heat creep’ issues ?
