- Internal magnet made from alnico V, an alloy of aluminum, nickel, iron, and cobalt

Use this in combination with an Erlenmeyer Flask and Stir Plate to make a yeast starter. A stir plate helps to keep yeast in constant contact with nutrients, encourages CO2 to off gas and continuously incorporates oxygen. All of that means higher cell counts.
