I'm gonna order the eight bag one gallon set up. But what bag is the one that is going to give me both a nice pure full melt but still plenty of yield? I will use all of it from each bag of course but the best stuff I want for smoking and the rest for cooking.

Good let me know how they work out. I'll probably go with bags that just have a mesh bottom and rubber sides. I don't mind investing money into some good bags that will last at least a couple years.

well, i haven't ordered mine yet. i scared of the cheap imitators out there. i found a full 8-bag set on eBay for like $60. which is freaking AWESOME!! considering the original Bubble Bags, which those are the ones i want, are $280, on eBay. they are like $320 on some other website i found. but im super picky and anal about things. i feel that there is a reason you pay more for some items then you do others. i also want the Bubble Machine. and those are about $200 on eBay. and since i seen this new dry ice method, with the broken jagged pieces of dry ice, i would feel a lot more comfortable buying the better bags. just in case something happens. it is something that i will research when the time comes. right now im hip on a Tamisium Extractor. they are hella spendy, but those seem well worth the money imo!!!

after getting my 110 and 90 one gals from wackywillysweb.com im pretty happy. However, i think id recommend ordering a 160 or close. I did get some hash out of the trim i was using with the dry ice method, about 1.5 grams from 30 grams of leaf and tips of sugar leafs. Was some good potent smoke that has a real lemonade kind of taste no bullshit. But these bags are legit, nice construction, draw strings and all. Fits perfectly around coffee can

This is awesome. Right when I'm about to start using the bubble bags, I read about this. Guess I'll use my blender and ice to make smoothies.
Got some questions:
-So do you start out with the 70micron, shake what you can out of it then clean up the dust and switch to a higher micron bag, or do you put all the bags on at once and then separate the different grades when done shaking?
-Does the trim need to be chopped up first, or will the dry ice do the job? What about stems?
-How small should the pieces of dry ice be?
-What is the best ratio of dry ice to trim?

i used a the biggest bag, 220 i think it was. you can refine it later with smaller screen sizes of desired.
i did not chop up the trim. it does break apart with the dry ice and shaking. i remove all the stems.
my dry ice came in pellet form, which was perfect.
not sure of the ratio, a handful or two. what would have been helpful would have been a big meshed screen to recover my dry ice so i can reuse it. it takes the dry ice quite a while to "melt", yet i only use it for a minute or two while shaking. i had to dump out good dry ice when i reloaded my bags.

-So you shouldn't use this method to remove trichs from all the stems?
-Can you explain what your process of refining is after you have a giant pile of raw hash?
-Would a window screen or a lettuce strainer work to recover the dry ice?
-Is it possible to do the curing after you've made the hash?
stems poke my bags.
i haven't further refined any of my hash, other then blasting some with some butane.
you would need a screen with a big enough mesh to allow the trim to fall thru, but not the dry ice.
not sure if curing is much of a concern when it comes to hash.

my brother used your method with his 220 and got the same results...he tried with one size up and got some green in it, i think it was a 160 or 170 ....im gonna order a 200 single and try....200 might give a better yield without letting shit thru..ill let you know when i get it
look in your local yellow pages. you will find a welding shop or somthing like that , that sells dry ice

Umm, 160 or 170 is the next sizes down. You would actually be getting less leaf/green plant matter.
I picked up some at Meijers...a department store here in Michigan. Walmart might have them...they're everywhere.
Fdd, I bought about 15 pounds and barely used 5. When I was done shaking it(lol), I dumped it out on a cooking sheet and recovered the dry ice with tongs. When I was done, there was dust everywhere...we need to come up with a better way to capture this dust to keep the work cleaner.
WARNING: Do not tip bucket back over(when done shaking) over work area!
my wife picked a handful out off the ground, with tongs, before i stopped her.
maybe blow it off with an air hose?
i have some screen laying around that is the perfect sized mesh. some type of "vent screen" or "cage wire" or something. it's been kicking around here for years, i just gotta find it in my junk pile.

I'd be afraid an air hose/compressor would blow the dry ice as well, maybe a good fan would do it if you want to go that rout.
I was only using the 1 gal bags that I had. So I got it in my head to shake into a large bole for like salad or popcorn...well it worked great until I attempted to scrape.
I'm thinking some sort of cover, or possibly an emergency blanket with 2 sides built up to form like a half pipe, then let the sides down when its time to scrape.
