According to DIN the mean value of a test has to be calculated as the result. In the definition part of the DIN the lowest value of a series of measurements for one batch is the flash point. In case of trends the mean value is not the correct value, since the lowest should be given as the correct one.

In ASTM methods a calculation of a mean value is not performed.

For these reasons the calculation of a mean value seems to be critical. So the mean and the lowest value are given as results.
