Well my washing machine drum held about 3/4 of a bag.

Ran it yesterday for 7 hours @ 225 - 250 and it barely used 1/4 of the basket load, so about 20% of a bag (3kg ish).

Result.

Very stable temps and nice sized bits. Some larger than others but on the whole pretty even.

It arrived in Tuesday, I haven't had a chance to burn it yet but on initial inspection it looks good.

The supplier was excellent, the courier was a day late picking it up and it wouldn't get to me before Easter weekend so he phoned me up to check if I needed it for the weekend - I didn't but if I did he said he would drive it to me himself!
