[QUOTE="mudgee hunter, post: 522285, member: 9124"] Every set up has its own max feed ratio, different material are a major factor to be considered. Sticky heavy stuff will need more time to be processed as opposed to light sandy material. That will wash out a lot quicker. Observe the the tail end of your set up, after a feed. Take note of the time it takes for little material to be still running out. ( just a few bits of material still being ejected) If in dirty water, put your hand at the waste end and feel for tailings to cease. Under feeding it is a term I've never heard, unless it is means over cautious?!!!! I can't imagine any harm in doing So! Feel free anyone for a discussion on that terminology..... Caking/ compaction is your worst enemy in processing, panning, sliucing etc. But normal for it to happen in the bucket. It should break up the moment it hits the flare and water. [/QUOTE]
