Great little magnetic stirrer
"Despite it's small size the stirrer copes well with a 5 litre starter and keeps the yeast in suspension with no settling on the bottom of the flask. Very impressed. Highly recommended."

Now even more compact than ever! Measuring at just 28mm high and 120mm wide this little sucker can punch a huge amount of power through to your stir bar.
Recommended Power = Low (just enough to suspend the yeast, not a super vortex)
Dial up from off with the bar in the middle of your Erlenmeyer Flask until you just start to see a small vortex forming at the top, then dial a bit off that. You don't need a crazy amount of vortex to make a good starter. You just need to keep the yeast suspended.
Please note: 3000mL Erlenmeyer Flask in photo is not included.

"Very fiddly to use and only works in the slower speeds, spend the extra $10 and get a $50 eBay jobby, much stronger magnets in them and better control over speed. I thought mine was faulty, but was told that is how they are."
"Can’t fault it. Delivery was on time, everything received as described and intact. Perfect. Thank you."
"Small and compact which is great. Once you get it started, it works great. But you have to have that little white pill perfectly centred - which is difficult to do through a cloudy wort. A few cms off and it’d just rattle and skip to the side. Took a few shots, but it works."
"Great quality. Will work perfectly"
"Great compact device, works as it should. Can’t go wrong for the peice"
"Pretty cool bit of gear. Made a good yeast starter in 24 hours."
"The 3 litre flask hangs over the edge but it works well. I would suggest getting a extra magnet because they are easy to lose"
"Order arrived quick. Wort Whipper works a charm."
"Works well for my needs and produces stronger starters faster then no stir plate at all. Brew occasionally and make 1 litre starters."
