Somehow always the 21% is selected by default, whatever I try. That means that everytime we create a new product we have to think about selecting the 6%.

J.P.")* Hi, When setting the taxes, you can define the tax of 6% in the "none" tax category, this way it will be selected by default. And put the other tax rules in other tax categories.
