Instructions???!!! Instructions???!!! We don’t need no stinkin’ instructions.
Well the Baked Duchess would like to pass them onto you anyway. Formerly Bubbleator now the new and improved BubbleMaster. Note that our bags are made in Vancouver BC in a facility that stitches outerwear for our fair mountains. The quality is outstanding and they last and last and last.
Here goes.
Included with your BUBBLEMASTER 3 bag system:
• Pyramid work bag 220mc
• Cleaner bag 220mc
• Crystal catching bags 70 & 38
• Extra bags available depending on model: 185mc for additional filtration; 120, 90, 45 & 25 for additional separation
Additional requirements:
• 1 x 5 gallon bucket
• Paper towels or clean cotton dish towel
• 1 bag ice cubes, enough to keep the water temperature down to 4C (41F) or that ice remains floating in the water
• stainless steel Kitchen sieve so the product will dry faster
The Process:
1) Place your BubbleMaster on the kitchen counter and the bucket in the sink. Place the screen bags in the bucket, from finest to coarsest (numbers in ascending order).
2) Fill the BubbleMaster with 1/2 a bag of ice and add cold water to 3/4 full.
3) Set the BubbleMaster to run for 2 minutes to mix the ice and water.
3) Fill the pyramid bag with up to 300 grams of frozen leaf material (fresh or dry) and place it in the BubbleMaster and set the timer for 3-8 minutes, rest for 10 minutes then repeat 2 more times.
4) open the lid and squeeze all the water out of the leaf material in the pyramid bag. Hang the hose in the bucket and let the BubbleMaster drain.
5) Hook the hose back onto the BubbleMaster . Remove the 220mc cleaner bag from the bucket, it will contain only leaf material. Remove the second bag, dunk it into the water 3 or 4 times, to collect all the crystals in the center of the screen. Gently squeeze all the water out by hand first, then wrap the screen in a piece of paper towel or clean dish towel, pat gently to avoid mashing crystals into the screen. If you have multiple crystal catching bags, then repeat for each bag.
6) Remove the crystals from the bag, place them in the kitchen sieve and push them through (with a spoon) onto a piece of paper or brown cardboard. This insures that the crystals are separated and dry quickly and evenly. Allow 48+ hours for complete drying to avoid molding. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for the additional screen bags.
It is recommended that you repeat the washing process up to 3 times with each pyramid bag fill, but ensure that the water has ice floating in it. You should rinse all of the screen bags with cold water immediately after use. If you feel that the holes in the screens are clogging up, use alcohol (96%) on a piece of cloth to gently clean the screen.
Additional Tips;
-Always ensure that your water is cold enough, there should be ice floating in the water at all times.
-Be sure to rinse your BubbleMaster well after your last run…lots of crystal can get caught up in the washer and the hose - let this water, along with the last run water, sit in the bucket overnight and gather the “mud” in the morning. You can use this mud for oils, butter or cooking.
