Ok so you're still using the elbow grease method. I've been trying to find a decent automated method that gives me similar yields than running it manually through the screens. I use it for edibles so go through a lot of it. The small agitator machine I grabbed is pretty good but even throwing dimes in it for some additional agitation, I'm still only getting about 6-7% return running it twice and for hours. On the 180 screen, manually I can get up to 10-11% but damn it hurts my back.

I'm trying yet another method (DIY) with some sieve screens I grabbed on AliExpress, will post up my thoughts on it once I get everything in and try it. The critical part is whether the agitators will work and figuring out how to connect them to the sieve screens.

Yeah I have one already, that's the agitator machine I mentioned. They work well from a technical standpoint, and the price is good compared to anything else I've seen out there for $500+, but the yield is considerably less than running it manually through the same size screen (180u).

Here's the one I have:

Here's the parts list from AliExpress for the new experiment to test next:

80 mesh (180u) sieve screen:

Throw some coins in with the bud on top of the screens, it keeps the bud agitated instead of clumping together. Shake the hell out of it.
