I go as small as 3/16" first grind.1/8" is for wienies.I like 3/16" for a hamburger grind,1/4" for sausage and 3/8" for a chili grind.The only time I run meat through my grinder twice is when I make sausage.I do that just to mix the meat and spices better.The second time goes through a really large plate that has only four pie shaped holes.

As Bob Hagel would say"You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong."Good words of wisdom...............
