I only ever baked my dessicant plug ONCE for the ST-8XE.
Sorry I only do SBIG cameras (Argon fill) but also re-charge the desiccants at the same time.

Rather than go into an oven, the plugs go into a heated vacuum chamber for about an hour, this puts way less heat stress on the plugs and pulls decidedly more moisture out of them.
