Jon Alty Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Doesnt a thicker disc generally give a harsher grind? Obviously its how much pressure + the angle of the disc aswell, but i think the thickness does effect it. I think a thinner disc is usually best (lighter grind), as you can then change harshness with pressure + angle? Im sure someone will correct me if im wrong .
