This is always tricky but temperature should be around 320 - 360 C deg, for larger part higher, for smaller lower (as large parts remove heat from tip more efficiently thus you need provide more heat) - there is always balance between self cleaning (as there is always limit for flux - bellow some temperature flux simply will not work) and excessive oxidation.

Sorry - simply RoHS are not safe (higher melting point bad for components) nor reliable from Amiga perspective.
