140 was a typo. If you can see the set temp on my thermometer it was set to 145 and +5 to 7 while holding = 150. My wife was a little nervous, but after holding, we checked it again and the temp was 151. I used the dish to hold the juice. Like I said, I am pretty new to this and just experimenting. Thats why I post my eats.. Maybe get some new/correct ideas on how to use this awesome thing.
