The printer is supposed to go where it's told but if the printer-processor is told to go 25mm then it sends "steps" to the motors to move them. How many "steps/mm" comes into play.
The first thing to check is the gcode. Open that Calibration Cube gcode file in a text editor like Notepad. In the first few lines is the Max and Mins for the three axis. The max and min XY will include the skirt/brim, but the MaxZ should be 20.00.
Typically, the X Y and Z steps don't need any adjustment, but maybe yours do.
(You said the printed cube was 1.79 on each side. I hope that was cm and not mm.)
The full stable release of UltiMaker Cura 5.4 is here and it makes it easier than ever to remove brims and supports from your finished prints. UltiMaker S series users can also look forward to print profiles for our newest UltiMaker PET CF composite material!
