Default New Grain Mill

OK, so I'm getting ready to use my new grain mill (Barley Crusher) for the first time. Also, the first time I've ever used any grain mill.

The mill came preset with a gap of .039.
Should I use that gap or change it to something else?

Also, what should I be using to measure the gap?

Cheers

I went through about 2 pounds of grain getting my crush to what I wanted. It was too fine for my liking, so I turned both dials to about the 1 o'clock position. I'm a happy camper now.

If you want to measure the gap you should be able to pick up some feeler gauges at Sears or just about any Auto Parts store.
