Proper agitation is the key, and nothing works better then "vibration" action. Pick up at Wallmart one of those message units that vibrate (or substitutes). For a live view of how fast it is, take an old bottle of fixer (clear bottle), and touch it with the vibratory tool. The old fixer sediment on the bottom rises to the top of the bottle instantly.....uou sese full agitation in roughly 5 seconds (without any hand agitation). What you will see is what looks like a tornado forming inside the bottle.
Before you try vibration agitaion, first try it by shaking, rotating, and turning the bottle upside down. What you see is nothing happening (assuming full bottle), and the sediment stays suspended exactly where it was. Next, touch the bottle with some vibration and you see a storm produced.
