1 gallon vs. 5 gallon bubble hash bags

I harvested yesterday and I got 6 gallon size bags full of fresh frozen nugs. I want to make bubble with this material but I am unsure on one thing and that is if I want to use a 5 gallon washing machine or save my money and just do batches manually with one gallon bags. I have never made bubble before. Should I start with the one gallon because it is cheap and move up later if I want? Is there any yield difference between agitating by hand and agitating in the washing machine? Thanks

I have the 2 gallon bags and find them too small.

Thanks, went with washing machine and 5 gallon bags. /close thread
What did you get for the washing machine? I’ve been thinking about getting one because I feel like I always stir too aggressively. I’ve seen the one Frenchy uses but wasn’t sure what it’s actually called.

I ordered mine from amazon. It’s the bubble bag dude machine. It comes with bags and cost me about $160

I was looking at a machine that has a spin dry side and I was wondering if that would help remove the trichomes or just add more plant material?

You use a 220 bag in the machine, then drain into a work bucket with the smaller screens in it. Just saves the hassle of mixing it by hand.

don't go cheap get a pneumatic or don't get one at all that's imho because the pneumatic is amazing. bongsmilie
I'm sure it is, the boss wouldn't sign off on it I'm sure. I saw it as a bonus with the bags, not a requirement for me. I haven't brought up the machine yet...lol

I saw a Canadian guy made a small wooden form and a big C clamp to press. Cheap. I thought if I made one, I might try my hand at wood carving the bottom to have a raised design. Then my blocks would have a stamp too. Just for fun.
