bubble hash 5 gallon washing machine for 115$?!?

Hey guys... are those bubble hash machines worth the money or should I just stick with a bucket and a mixer?

I can get this neat little washer for 115$ shipped to canada and I feel thats very cheap.. what do you guys think?

put ice in there and get the plastic cold, cold plastic breaks real easy.

good point....

I can't speak for all bubble machines but I purchased a 5 gallon machine from the bubble bags people. It works very well and I'm not tired after making a couple of batches. I'm happy with the purchase.

heres another thing I noticed...

this guy has tons of good feedback, rarely anything bad said about his machines. and he offers a 1 year warranty...

I think im gonna try it.

what do you guys do with the water that comes out of the 25 micron bag?

and how much nice "bottom of the bag" shake should I use with a 5 gallon bag?

Most all the Ice hash making machines were plastic... i'd say that its a good deal. other than the bag it comes with is very cheap and will probably need replacing after a few washes. He's sold 52 of them and his feedback isn't filled with people saying they're shitty or anything. ALSO, if you don't already have your filter bags, your going to have to wrap some money up in them. Its probably no better than purchasing from the real website.. my .02

I already have an 8 bag 5 gallon set I was planning on doing a wash in just them today. then maybe another wash when I get the bubble machine.

200 grams or so of nice, dry, bottoms isnt too much?

if you look at this video its the user on here Matt Rizes' video but he runs almost the same setup i believe.. his thread is stickied at the top of this sub forum..

yeah I know. thats why I wanted to buy it. still debating if its worth 120$ or if I should just stir it by hand and do basically the exact same thing.

If you were doing a lot of bubble runs every month I would say get it, If you're just doing 1 run a month I would say spend your money elsewhere. It really doesn't take that much time or effort because your mixer is doing all the work for you

I know how long it takes me to do a 5g run using all 5 bags, and i just as soon not do it again (using ice/water). the dry ice method is the fastest, i dont know if its the absolute best, but its great. nice and easy, good smoking hash.

Id deff consider one of these machines. its only 120 bucks, grab it, if u dont like it youll be able to sell it easy enough... jus tell your friends you paid 175 for it lol...youll give em a good deal at 125....

damn, only a benji shipped in the US.. even better..

it was so easy mixing it... I just sat there for 5-10 mins mixing it with a drill with a electric egg beater in the end of it... it was so easy and find I might make more tonight. maybe try 300 or 400g this time.

So did you buy it? Thinking bout getting one.....I use a wooden spoon ...when I use a drill n paddle bit. I get plant material.

use a ladder over your mixing bucket, ziptie drill to ladder and you have an automatic mixer you don't have to hold.

This is cheaper. Does anyone know if these are all the same or if the ones that cost the most really are that much better at extracting the thc from the plant?

I've had a Chinese manufacturer "plastic" counter top washing machine, which I purchased to make bubble about six years ago and it still works fine. I used it a lot at first, extracting kif to turn into oil, but it has mostly been idle since I started doing bulk non polar extractions with a Terpenator. I had to install an step down transformer to accomodate the 250V 50 cycle, but otherwise I just ran it as was.
