I'm also on the fence about this subject. I myself am thinking about getting the 4" or 6" stackable classifiers. But haven't been able to locate what I think I want! I want mesh sizes from 100 on down . Perhaps a 200mesh too?

These are the only ones I could find for 200 and 325.

If you're panning all your cons then I would use 30 and 60 mesh classifiers,
with the option for a 100 mesh.

Mrmanpig, go read my blog entry (written a couple months ago now) on finish processing your concentrates. You will learn all you need to know there

Classifiers make panning your concentrates much easier. I have a set I got years ago. They are 30, 50 and 100 mesh. They make things easier than trying to pan everything at once.

I recommend you do read Kevin In Colorado's link. It sure helped me out. Also, make sure you browse the YouTube videos about processing your concentrates. You will learn a whole lot.

You probably don't need to get a classifier finer than 100 mesh. As it is, 50 and above is challenging to pan. CaleyAnn
