I watched a 3D printing youtuber say that Adam Savage said 20% but 10% is what he uses.

I have never seen my sunlu dryer show anything bellow 23% even after days of use and I have no idea how to achieve 10 without cooking the filament.

    20% should be perfectly fine. I can’t get mine less than that without extreme effort, and it doesn’t perform better at that percentage anyway.

    I dry mine in a food dehydrator and print with it in one of the filament dryers to keep it dry during long prints. I live in a swamp though, so it’s necessary for me to do this before almost every print.
