Then I put just enough olive oil to cover the skin lightly, then salt. Then I place it in the oven for 30 min on 220-240 deg, must be preheated. After that time reduce the heat to around 180 deg.

    Cheers

    I do pretty much the same, if that still doesn't work you can put the crackling into a hot frying pan for a few minutes (crackle side down obviously), that makes it definitely crackle.. tried pork belly? this helps if it's slightly uneven and not all of the crackling works.. cheers.
