V-minion top layer ridges
Hey, maybe you know what is causing these ridges on the top layer? It seems less noticeable with certain plastics, but it generally always appears.

did u calibrate ur flow?
Those ridges generally are a sign of overextrusion. Either because the nozzle is too close to the bed (mainly on the first layer) or because your flow is too high. I would recommend calibrating your first layer again and then calibrating flow
Depending on your slicer you even have a top-layer-flow option (SuSi has it, dont know about PS, Orca or Cura). When everything else is tuned you can tweak your top surfaces that way

Thanks guys! I re-calibrated the extruder steps, first layer, and flow. Now it's perfect. Flow re-calibration did the job.
No
Don't recalibrate the esteps
They are fine unless you changed them. Tune your extrusion multipliyer.
