Hi Ya'all; Glad to see that Trem is signing "my song." If you want good CS then stir. So at this time I will show you a very simple and inexpensive way to stir.
First you need a lid for your brew vessel. Then put a 1/4" hole in the center and holes for your electrodes at the spacing that you desire. For 14 to 16 oz I prefer about 1/2" spacing with 3 1/2" wet length. Then get a Radio Shack 1 1/2 vdc motor $0.99 , a battery box and a "D" battery, and a pkg of 10 ohm resistors. Hot glue or epoxy the motor to the lid. place three resistors in parallel and twist their respective ends together for 3 1/3 ohms that you will place in series with one of the motor leads. When the battery gets old it may be necessary to quickly short the resistor pack with a clip lead to strat the motor. With the resistor pack the motor voltage will be about .5 volts. The actual stirrer is a 2" length of plastic insulation from a #14 copper wire pushed on to the motor shaft. This set-up stirs a cylnder of DW that is 4 1/2" dia by 8" tall (2 liters) very effectively. My CS has sich a weak T.E. even at 10 to 15 ppm as measured by my spect. that one must go into a dark room to see it. GOOD STUFF!!
