would a PID be useful on a HX machine, such as the Andreja?

would this eliminate the 'temp surfing' to get the group head at the correct temp for a shot?

thank!

In addition to the power of Google, searching "PID" in the unabridged FAQs and Favorites yields some other interesting discussions, e.g., PID your grouphead: active heating of the E61 and Good all round explanation of PID stuff.
