19-limit
In 19-limit just intonation, all ratios in the system will contain no primes higher than 19.
The 19-prime-limit can be modeled in a 7-dimensional lattice, with the primes 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, and 19 represented by each dimension. The prime 2 does not appear in the typical 19-limit lattice because octave equivalence is presumed. If octave equivalence is not presumed, an eighth dimension is need.

Another list of edos which provides relatively good tunings for 19-limit intervals (relative error < 5%): 72, 111, 217, 243e, 270, 282, 311, 354, 364, 373g, 400, 422, 460, 494(h), 525, 540, 581, 597, 624, 643, 653, 692, 718, 742, 764h, 814, 836f, 882, 908, 925, 935, 954h and so on.
