I am not sure if it is right ot ask this here but I am anyways.
I am going to try the washing machine method next fall after spending days and weeks it seems processing my shake/popcorn bud this fall. and with fighting with the 25micron bag I have an idea I need to run past people.
I plan on having the machine pump out into a set of 5gal bags down to the 60micron size then drain onto a "sluicebox" I want to make a 8ft long3ft wide frame attach a way of vibrating it and sling a strip of 25micron material over it. the frame would sit on an angle and would vibrate a lot. the water/produce that gets thru the 60 microm would fall onto the top of the sliucebox and run down it, with the vibration I am hoping the water would be filtered by the time it runs the 8ft.
I wonder would it work? be a waste of time or just need more engineeering?

so $300 and some time/effort and you basically have something comparable to a bubblenow XL, that's my understanding here.
i feel there's something to be said for the logistics of having a bnow as opposed to a full size washing machine... one weighs 24 lbs and can be tucked away fairly easily, and the other is a full size washing machine...
also, one could argue that the customer service that comes with the bubblenow makes w/e extra price almost negligible...

bubblenow xl is 350 thats only 50$ more...id gladly pay for the machine A. im lazy B. customer service is A+....seems like a worthwhile extra $50 to spend imho
How much trim can you run in the Bubblenow XL? MDK is right, paying the extra 50 would be worth it, for its size and portability/ease of storage, compared to a full size machine. It depends on many factors that is specific to each persons situation, whether it's better to have a XL or a fullsize dedicated machine, IMHO.

1-What kind of material is best to use? My understanding is fresh frozen green material. If so, would you coarse grind it?
2-My machine took a 1 1/4" discharge hose. That was too big, it did not drain very well. I will try a 1". Does that sound right?
3-Fill 1/2 full of water, ice, and (2) large zippered bags with ice & material in it.
4-Run machine on gentle or regular and let it pump out water & trics. Would you add water and pump out again? If so, would you squeeze the bags before pumping-out the second time?

1.Fresh Dried Plant Material.
2.Do not grind it. Better to not use any plant material that is pulverized or broken down to shake.
3.Yes each machine can be different and have different size hoses.
