Forgive another "how long is a piece of string?" question, but I was wondering: I often see descriptions of "Extreme Minimal Agitation" that mention a one to two minute initial agitation that is more aggressive than the kinder, gentler (and shorter) agitations that punctuate each "stand."
For those of using tubes (e.g. of the Steve Sherman variety) what exactly does "aggressive" mean? Roll the tubes faster and stop them more abruptly? I've seen the Fred Newman videos where he takes the Shake Weight (TM) approach with his BTZS tubes before dropping them in the water bath, but at first blush that seems excessively burly for this particular approach...
