10 x Magnetic Stir Bars – $6.97… 70 cents each

Magnetic Stir Bars,10 Pcs PTFE Magnetic Stirrer Mixer Stir Bar, 20 mm/ 0.8 Inch White Laboratory Stirrer Mixer Bar (10)

More Info

Highlighted Features

Package Included：Size: 6.4mm×20mm/0.8 inches. Quantity: 10 pieces, shape: cylinder with pivot ring shape
DURABLE MATERIAL：Stir stick is made of Teflon and high-quality magnet. It is not easily demagnetized and lasts longer than other stir bars
Scientific Design：These stirring sticks have a pivot ring in the center. They are designed to hold an optimal position in containers with curved or uneven bottoms. The ring helps reduce vibration and wear, and reduces the effects of friction from contact with the vessel
Suitable for a variety of stirrers:Magnetic stir bars can be used with various types of magnetic stirrers or heating stirrers on the market
Wide range of uses：Stir sticks are widely used in scientific research, colleges and universities, industrial and agricultural laboratories and household use

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 10? 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.

MoreBeer 2,000 mL Erlenmeyer Flask – $19.99 + Free Ship Eligible, Limited Availability, Matches 2020 Deal

2,000 mL/2 Liter Borosilicate Flask from MoreBeer for making yeast starters.

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

These Erlenmeyer flasks help the best brewers to make large yeast starters to get their beer fermenting fast. Large populations of active yeast help ensure a healthy fermentation, free of off flavors. One of our favorite things about the Erlenmeyer flasks is that you can boil your starters directly in them!

Our large 2000ml Erlenmyer Flask is the ideal vessel to make a large yeast starter for 5 gallon lagers and high gravity brews. Because it is made from borosilicate glass you can move it from a boil on your gas stove into a cold water bath for cooling, without the risk of cracking. (We do not recommend the use of an electric element. If this cannot be avoided, we recommend using a larger pot as a hot water bath on the stove.) This means you can do the whole process in one container, keeping it simple and helping to reduce the risk of contamination when transferring from one container to another.

Recommended Process for Use of Flask:
Double Boiler Method

It is important for your safety to heat water in the flask with a heat source that distributes heat evenly. Our manufacturer has confirmed that direct heat to the glass can break down its integrity and break if the heat source doesn’t distribute evenly.

Morebeer! recommends using the “double boiler method.” This process involves using a boiling water bath on the outside of the flask to heat up the water inside the flask. All you need is a kettle 3 gallons or larger. This process is much safer and efficient. If the flask should break or boil over, your kettle will be there to collect the contents, thus keeping your stove clean and keeping you away from potential harm.

Features

Massive 2L (2000mL) Capacity
Made from Borosilicate Glass
Fantastic price for a flask of this size
Produced for MoreBeer!
6.5″ base 2.5″ top 10.75″H

Why make a yeast starter? (from our FAQ)
We build starters for 3 main reasons. First, to ensure yeast health. By making a starter 1-3 days in advance, you ensure that your yeast is healthy and strong and ready to do its job. Second, to create more yeast. By making the starter you will increase the cell count of the yeast, giving you a better chance of keeping bacteria’s and wild yeasts from fermenting your wort. Third, if you are making high gravity beers. If you are making a high gravity beer (1.060+) you will need more yeast to start the ferment faster. High gravity beers will also finish more completely when you pitch ample quantities of yeast.

In the lab world, these flasks are known as “Student Grade”. A great flask for making yeast starters!(Student grade is not the highest grade flasks and will have minor defects)

Limited Availability Deal of the Day: As of this posting, this is marked down to $19.99 as a MoreBeer Deal of the Day. Shipping is also free to addresses in the contiguous US with most $59 Orders.

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 10? 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.
