27edo divides the [[octave]] in 27 equal parts each exactly 44{{frac|4|9}} [[cent]]s in size. However, since the harmonics whose intervals it approximates well (3, 5, 7, 13, and 19) are all tuned sharp of just, 27edo is a prime candidate for [[stretched and compressed tuning|octave compression]]. The local zeta peak around 27 is at 27.086614, which corresponds to a step size of 44.3023 cents. More generally, narrowing the steps to between 44.2 and 44.35 cents would be better in theory; [[43edt]], [[70ed6]], and [[97ed12]] are good options if octave compression is acceptable, and these narrow the octaves by 5.75, 3.53, and 2.55 cents, respectively.
