Mila's bubbleator GOT BUBBLE?

Guest

Purchased my bubbleator from US.... order out around the 7th of Dec. return notice saying item shiped on the 20th Dec. and it got here on the 3rd of Jan.Great service for holiday mail around my area IMHO.Just needed the expantion kit cost 185$ with s/h.Comes with bubbleator(mini Euro washing mashine for clothes) a kitchen sieve,aquarium thermometer and a cone 220 m zipper bag.
I had been saving my leaves since I harvested in Nov. knowing I was going to order the bubbleator soon .So I was way ready for a batch.My bubblebags were getting lonely LOL.Ran out and got some ice while my leaves sat in the freezer(next time I will freeze overnight) Came home and filled with ice water and ran for 3 min. tested temp.Threw leaves in the bag and ran the machine for about 8-9 min. emptied and put the same bag in for another 6 min. All I have to say is you need to buy a bubbleator....I have been using the bags now since Mila came out with them a while back. I used the ice-o-lator bags till the inside started falling apart(before she inproved them)
I switched over to bubblebags before the 120 was in the pack....Then the 120m came ...had to buy the 120 set LOL.OK here's what I have found with just one batch..I hated the bags because the mixing was never efficient enough and you either have to hold the mixer and manualy move it or put a baking rack or lid over the bucket so the mixer will sit on top.This is still a pain in the A$$ ,you still have to constantly move the mixer and untangle leaves from the blades.With the mixer there is more green conamination without a doubt.The batch from the bubbleator came out pure as it comes.This machine is easy to use and clean.Saves wear and tear on your bags and the purity speaks for itself.The bubbleator gave a greater yeild too.I got more out of 9 min. in this machine than 30 min. on the bags with a mixer.Then the 6 min secondary run yeilded a lil over 4 grams of goodness after the fact.Never get second runs on bags always crappy turnout.
Thanks Mila for your continued research into better easier ways to bubble...................

I just finished running my first batch thru the bubbleator. I love this thing... I got a very nice return. There is one interesting point though. The deluxe version comes standard with the 220 cleaner bag and a 70 micron bag. I ordered 2 additional bags. The 90 micron and the 38 micron screen.. I used the 220 cleaner than the 90, 72 and finally 38. The 90 screen had a very nice sized chunk in it. The 70 had just about nothing at all in it and the 38 had a very nice size chunk too. So I guess the question is if the standard bag is the 70 and I ordered 2 additional bags (the 90 and the 38), why did nothing really collect in the 70, but I got lots with the 90 and the 38.... hhhhmmmmmm kinda weird, but sssoooooooooo blonde and no green either!!!! Great machine!!! and pretty quick without a mess!!!

sounds good patch ... crazy I have the bubblebags 220 ,190,160,120,73,45,25. For this first run I only used the 220,160,73,45.....the 220 had some green/bud hairs in it from the zipper I didn't seal closed good enough but it caught it...then the 160 had pure white colored hash good amount,the 73 had a lot of a lil darker ,the 45 had a lil less than the 160 but darker than the 73 lol......It all depends on strain though.this run was an old school sativa plant (old mother) I still have a whole bag of SSH trim to do ........
Hey nuggy,
got my bags from the bubblebag site http://bubblebag.com/index2.php

I love the screen/kitchen sieve that comes with the bubbleator .It is a must after running the ice hash extraction process any way ...the bags w/mixer,bubbleator ect...you must press the water out then put hash through a strainer/coarse sieve to break up into fine powder for drying ...this is the only efficient way.otherwise the taste smell and high are effected greatly.

Thanks laughingbuddah!!! Either way, I still got some killer hash and this machine sure simplifies the hell out of the process!! Yah, I agree, the longest part of the entire process was cleaning out the main 220 bag for the weed. A little tediousm but done still with no problem. I think I like hash better now...lol

Nuggy,
I ordered my extra bags from greenharvest.com The bubbleator itself I got from everyonedoesit.com and it shipped and arrived to the US in 2 days!!!

I also got the piecemaker press... that's next after this dries... woo woo!!!

thanks patch - everyonedoesit doesn't have just the kit though, i already have a 7 bag kit so wanna get it without the bags.

greenharvest.com has it and it is already set for 110 voltage too. the only thing is, it will take at least 3 weeks to get it once you order from them. I had to buy a voltage converter to make the one work that came from the UK, but I didn't want to wait a month for it either.

hey nuggy, I ordered mine straight from The pollinator company in Amsterdam.Came with everything but the ice o bags just the inner 220 for the machine ...It is called the bubbleator b-quick expansion kit.For those of us that already have a set of bags.It cost $135 usd 50$ S&H 185 total .sent money order.......I emailed before shipping the money order and all you have to do is specify what model you want euro or 110v US plug......Check my post before it took exactly two weeks for them to get it to me after they had my money order....this was sent out on the 20th of Dec and recieved on the 3rd of Jan. sweet service for holiday mail......Mila is top notch

Hey laughingbuddah

thanks for shareing the pics of your bubblelator. it sounds like you are well pleased with it. i have been thinking of ways to get a more thorough mix and rinse of the trim, with my 7 bag bubble bag kit. my last run i made sure to do a very thorow second run and it yielded about 2 thirds of the first run. which is the most i ever got from the second run. mind you you seem to be getting great yields from the bubbleator? can you explain a bit more about how the trim is mixed inside that thing? is it similar to a pollinator inside the machine? or more like a washingmachine on the inside?

cool results nice melty pics....

From what I've read, it IS actually a miniature (European) clothes washing machine.

it even looks like a mini washingmachine lol. i was wondering why the ice stayed so clean. i must say i like the idea alot, but i still wonder what kind of movement takes place inside the drum to break the trichs off? is there a propeler, or is there a few bars going through like inside a polinator drum?

Hey gaiusmarius and ambre,
yup your exactly right its a mini euro washing machine.the picture on the box shows a lady washing clothes lol... I took a picture of the inside it has no aggitator it is aggitated by a serious water presure pushed out of the base that spins the water in a vortex then stops and cycles the opposite way a vary effective way for removing crystals ...the leaves are put in a 220 micron zipper bag and the bag is put in the machine.this is not at all like a pollinator !!! the water movement is the only thing that aggitates the bag in the water ....no egg beaters......

Just to let you know how much I like it ..my friend wanted to borrow it ...not! this is staying right here where I can see it ...I am buying him one for his B-day lol....

Yo laughingbuddah

thanks for showing the inside. now things are becomeing clear lol. i supose the trim and the ice go together in the 220 bag right? how come was the ice in the pic earlyer so clean. does this system keep the ice outside the 220 bag? also what do you think about the yield potential. i can tell your happy with it, but would you say it gets more trichomes off then the normal way of making bubble with the bucket and cake mixer?

Ice is kept outside 220..... leaf is inside.....yes a much more effective way of removing the trichomes...yeild is awsome....but I guess the price went up 202$ usd 122$ for the expansion kit and 65$ shipping and I guess a new 15$ fee to cash a money order...kinda BS if you ask me I just bought one a couple monthsa ago for 185$ total from the same company....go figure....and this is my second purchase no special deals lol.....
THE MIXER GIVES WAY MORE CONTAMINATION WITH LEAF MASS DUE TO METAL BLADES RIPPING THROUGH THE WATER (green) THE BUBBLEATOR GIVES MUCH MORE PURE (white) RETURN NO BLADES CONTACT LEAF ONLY 220 MICRON BAG................................. reread the post you will see me repeat myself lol.................

Hmmm this is fascinating. that means the only agitation takeing place is through the movement of the waschingmachine and through waterbeing chucked around through that movement. i think i'm sold on this idea. although i think i might find a way to take advantage of the methode but without actualy buying the thing. it seems to me if you take a big barrel and hook a pump up to really agitate that mix you could achieve similar results? it would be worth trying maybe...my next run i'm planing to continue experimenting with mixing with an ultrasonic toothbrush lol. but this idea has givem me something to put on a wish list lol. until then i'll just make do...:yummy: :wave:

Back in the day we used a normal washing machine. laughingbuddah, are you sure the actual brand name on the washing machine is B-quick? I couldn't find it anywhere. I was just curious how much the machine costs.
