One full turn is 40 clicks, made of 10 numbers with 4 clicks each. Settings are written turn.number.click, so 1.2.0 means one full turn, then number 2 (48 clicks from zero).

These are starting points. Beans, roast, water and your own taste all move them, so start in the middle of the range and adjust one step at a time.
