Machine or Hand Agitation?

[unregistered190]

For those that have used the washing machines like bubble bag man sells....is it worth the extra money to not have to hand stir?

Or is the yield increased? Quality?

About to order some bags (no brand has been chosen yet) and just curious if I should buy the machine as well.

Thanks in advance!

It's worth the extra money in my opinion.

I used my bubble bags with ice water the first time, but every time since then I've been using dry ice. It sublimates directly into CO2 so there is never a wet phase which means you don't have to dry your kief out, it's ready to smoke right off the table. I've never used one of the machines though, sorry.

I switched to these sieves lately. I like them so far and feel like they are more durable than the bags. Bags dont seem to last that long so I dont buy expensive sets. Also quicker clean up with a bit of alcohol compared to the bags. I agitate using a drill with a paint mixer in a 5 gal bucket. Been doing that way for years and always got great results.

One other thing, Frenchy sent me a link awhile back for the machine he used at the time and it was just a cheap RV washing machine. $35 at that time which was only a couple years ago. Not familiar with Bubblemans machine but others I have seen were similar to the one Frenchy was using
