Default Variable Annealing Temps?

Got a new torch (Carlisle Hellcat) a few months ago and I'm back to working with boro. I've been reading about new colors, and keep finding annealing info beyond the usual 1050. If you're using some of this glass with other colors, how do you anneal properly? Theoretical example: Molten Aura Gold Ruby (yummy color) wants a garage/anneal temp of 1065. If I use it over NS Star White will there be any issues? Are colors that want cooler annealing then a poor choice with these "run hotter" colors?

I'm only making beads and small marbles so far, if that makes a difference.
