Artisan Stir Plates. For the home brewer, by the home brewer.
ORDERS WILL NOT SHIP UNTIL AFTER DEC. 28TH. I am out of town for the holidays, and will not be able to ship any orders until I return.
Welcome, welcome! Thanks for taking the time to look through my shop. I hope you like what you've found. Performance is a paramount requirement in my stir plates, followed very closely by aesthetics.
This storefront, and the products available on it, represent the merging of two of my nuclear passions, home brewing and mechanical design engineering.
In the summer of 2014, I decided it was time to up my brewing with a stir plate for yeast cultures. I searched around, but was not satisfied with the products presently available. So I set out to make one for myself. It took a good deal of conceptual design, and several prototypes. Ultimately it was much more effort than could ever be justified to build a single stir plate, but I had come up with a solid, repeatable product. Furthermore, I enjoyed the process and decided the end result was something worth sharing. So, this storefront was eventually born as a result.
I continue to make all the items in my store with the same care as if I were constructing them for myself. By making these goods available to others, I can justify the hours spent researching and prototyping: and can make bulk purchases of high quality components for each assembly (that would be prohibitively expensive if just buying for a single build).
The end goal is to create a unique stir plate that meets or exceeds the performance of its commercial counterparts, while maintaining an artisan, handcrafted identity. I love the items that I have available on this site, and hope you will as well!
