About a min or so. The more you pour in a session the longer they will need to sit as the mold will get hot. I generally just let them sit in there until I have the next batch of plastic ready for its final run in the microwave. Take your baits out of the mold and let them cure (ie place them on something, I use foil pans, and lay them out straight). you can bag and use them right out of the mold if you want but they will bend and kink as they cure. All personal preference. I know a few guys on here let them cure for over a week or more.
