S5/S3 with Capricorn tubes retraction settings ?

[Link 34]

Hi,

 

I am finding that the default retraction settings of 6.5 distance and 25 speed for PLA to be too much for my S5 with capricorn bowden as each retraction is pulling in air, and consequently after every retraction there is the popping of the air bubbles and tiny holes in the print.

 

What have others done in terms of retraction settings with capricorn ? also is it best to adjust distance or speed to prevent pulling air in, assuming distance. 

 

thanks

Default settings are fine for PLA on my S5.

Are you using standard Bowden tubes ?
