I haven't used Ron's method yet so I can't really compare, but from my reading it, it sounds very good. I like the fact that you really can't do anything wrong with it as he has explained it and listed settings in detail. I would go with that one. Especially since it's the preferred method for the company's owner. In fact I think I will use it for my new B5. With that said, the heat cycle method is solid as well. Go with what you feel comfortable with.
