4 Pcs 30mm(1.8 inch) PTFE Magnetic Stirrer Mixer Stir Bar,Laboratory Bar,Stir Plate Bar + Blue Stir Bar Retriever, Magnetic Retriever

Stir Bars + Retriever

More Info
Highlighted Features
  • Magnetic stirrer bars are constructed with a magnet assembled in and PTFE coating, resistant to corrosion and abrasion, nontoxic; durable and inert
  • They are a popular way of stirring liquids in modestly sized containers; perfect for chemistry and biology research, home-lab use; home brewers to make a yeast starter, or tinctures/salves
  • The Stir Bar Retriever follows the lines on the outside of the container to help you easily pick up the stir bar from the bottom of the container. Does not get wet. The perfect accessory for a blue magnetic stirrer.
  • The package contains 4 magnetic stirring bars (8*30mm) + 1 stirring bar retriever
  • High & low temperature resistance: Maintain a good mechanical toughness between 196℃ ~250℃. Even if the temperature dropped to -196℃, it can also maintain a 5% elongation.

 

  • Use along with a compatible Erlenmeyer Flask and Stir Plate to do Stir Plate Yeast Starters.
  • Why a Stir Plate? The constant motion of a stir plate integrates oxygen, puts yeast in constant contact with nutrients, relieves built up CO2 and generally helps yeast to grow more rapidly.  That also means smaller starters.
  • Why get 4?  Generally, you’re going to save money buying in bulk.  Having these on hand allows you to do multiple starters at once and… you’ll have spares if you mistakenly dump your stir bar into your fermenter.

Hands on Review: Propper Starter Canned Starter Wort

Propper Starter Canned Wort by Omega Labs

Updated: September 18, 2024

This review is by Homebrew Finds Contributor Brad Probert.  Brad is an engineer, expert homebrewer and experienced reviewer.  Grab a link to Brad’s website at the end of this review.

Propper Starter Canned Starter Wort

I never used to be a fan of starters. I willfully ignored stories people would tell about their starters because I didn’t want starters to matter. Extra work strung out to a few days before brew day was something I just couldn’t get excited about. But then I did some experiments splitting a batch and fermenting one with a starter and one without. I then saw firsthand how the starter saved a couple of challenging lager fermentations. I could no longer be a denier.

I set about trying to make the process as easy as possible with a flask, stir plate, and even a small electric coffee kettle to allow me to keep the process contained to my basement brewing area. It was manageable, but I still couldn’t overcome the dislike of having to buy DME (and running short when I needed it), and the whole cooling process after I boiled the wort starter. Then I stumbled upon the Propper Starter canned starter wort in my LHBS. Could this be my savior?
