Slic3r PE support material thickness

I have been searching for a long time but can't find an answer. I'm having issues with the Slic3r PE support material. I prints the supports very thin, looks like 0.1mm, even when I change the layer detail. It's not too much of a problem on the parts but the supports from the bed end up sticking to the PEI sheet and are very difficult to remove. Is there a way to change the support material thickness?

Faith is not believing. It's believing when all odds are against you and failure is inevitable. Believe in yourself, that's the key.

I have the same issue, but I always squish layer one. You could try adjusting first layer up a bit. The trade off is supports get weaker and can come loose during the print.

And letting the bed cool completely, or a few minutes in the freezer, helps lift the stuck bits.
