Totally depends on your water pressure and what shampoo/foam agent you are using. As a general rule of thumb, if you are using a standard shampoo fill the bottle a quarter full with it and add warm water to the top, then start on a middle setting (2-3) and adjust up or down until the foam level is spot on. If you are using a snow foam style product follow exactly the same method but add just 1cm of product to the bottle.
