Acclimating and Dipping corals

Just wondering how everyone acclimates and dips their new corals when purchasing from the LFS or online. Wondering if the below will work or if there are better methods.

- Float bag for 15 minutes
- Drip acclimate coral into bucket (how long?)
- Leave bucket with 1 gallon of water and add coral dip
- Turkey baste and let coral sit in dip for 10 minutes
- Put coral in tank.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated for this newbie. :)
 
Hey Jeremy, thanks for the links. I went through both of them but whats the best approach of dipping after acclimation?

After done acclimating put coral in a bucket with total of 1 gallon water and 4 capfuls (Revive directions) and dip?
 
Thanks Jeremy for the info! Literally "rain" check for surfing....

Also, do you recommend using a powerhead or airstone when dipping or just swish the water around?
