I have pretty much dialed in my new K30 grinder and Lucca machine. I am keeping my old Rocky for iced coffee and French press, etc. What would be a good grind setting to use?

Thanks!

I'm at 40 for pour over and nearly maxed out for FP. I love my Rocky for this purpose, as it is built like a tank and can be cleaned and recalibrated in 5 minutes.

You can try 40, but you will probably get some mud.
