I use a fish pump to stir CS in the making, it works great !  I get
clear CS that stays clear , and I have pushed it to 35ppm (hanna meter)
and it still is the same clarity,   and a good taste.  My normal batch
in 2 qt jar is 10 t0 15 ppm..and it works very well.  Be sure to use a
bubble stone on the end  of the little hose..
