I picked up a magnetic stirrer today for $5 at the local university surplus store. It works fine now, with the addition of one screw to hold the magnet centered where the rivet broke off. A pretty decent find for the cash. Anyways, I was wondering what kind of stirbar would be best(coating/shape) for use in starters? What speed is recommended and when do you start it? Thanks in advance for the replies.
