5 are enough..... 8 too many imo
dont buy the real cheap ones . I got a $40 set and a $240 set.... the cheap ones leak at the seams, and feel cheap. and if they leak at seams , this makes straining almost pointless

Hey man, check out sprungbags.com. You want the 5 bag, 5 gallon set. I just made this about an hour ago. Purple Blur Hash made with sprungbags.
The darker one is a previous batch I made and it was my biggest cookie. Until tonight, I put this Purple Blur trim through and before curing it weighs 27.8g. See how the fresh hash is very blonde? The other one looked the same way 2 weeks ago. Very proud of this one.
Tomorrow the Ice trim is going through. Can't wait.

I have used them for almost a dozen runs now and they're no worse for wear. They only cost $85 for a five bag set. It really ends up being 4 bags though because the 25 micron bag takes so long to drain that it's not worth the effort. When you see what you pull out of the 73 mic bag it makes it all worth it.
These bags are DURABLE too. Like I said, a dozen runs already. I use a 6 amp drill and a hand mixer beater to agitate, plus use the sharpest ice I can source. I've never even got the bag stuck in the mixer.
I found these bags through a post here comparing about 5 different brands. I picked a winner.
If you want mind=blown. Check out this! WackyBags Watch the videos! This thing is like one of the best inventions EVER! Right up there with the telephone and electricity. Next $600 extra I have, I'm getting one!

Just some cold water and regular ol' bagged ice from the store. Make sure to get FRESH ice, NOT homemade ice from your freezer. 1 bag of ice, 2 gallons of water, and stir for 25 mins.
I've always wanted to try dry ice but there's no where to source it this far North.
I never actually looked at WackyBags bags before. Good call, knowing what I know now, that's probably the way I would go. Gotta have the machine though! I'll definitely post some pics of that this fall.

dry ice is easier.... yeilds more... but the quality is lower.
