When I was doing my research into getting set up for SS media, I saw the CanadianTresureSeekers website as well and ended up buying direct from the states at SSmedia.com or whatever their website is. I did not buy the media separator, big mistake. BUY THE MEDIA SEPARATOR. It's worth it.
I love the set up though, totally worth the ~$300. I used to measure out the soap and lemishine as suggested but now just guestimate the volumes. Time is the big factor in getting the brass brand new looking. Time and also the amount of brass you jam in there. A few weeks ago I cleaned ~1000 30-06, 2000 9mm, and about 400 303Brit. Some of the larger loads I think I put 200 pieces of 9mm instead of the recommended 150, brass looked alright but not brand new. Some of that old crappy looking military 30-06 came out shinier than new!
Oh, my big complaint is the tumble gasket that is put between the end plate and the barrel body. My rubber gasket is warping and the seal between the 6 main screws is degrading. Not a huge fan of that design flaw but the gasket should be easy to replace.
Anyway, hope that helps.
