Ideal settings Repetier Host for PLA

Are there ideal settings to set in Repetier Host for Velleman PLA? I mean temperature, extrusion length,…

I printed a little cube (20x20mm) and the top and bottom are not completely, let’s say, waterproof.

I’m planning on printing a vase, so I want to be sure the vase is watersealed

I recommend ~210°C temperature for PLA. Just add extra layers of full print in Slic3r at the bottom to make sure the bottom is waterproof and increase the first layerheight.

Make sure the Z axis is properly calibrated.
