Description

Say goodbye to your days of picking up and shaking carboys.
 
Use the Lees Stirrer to quickly and easily degas wine, stir your lees back into suspension, or mix in additives. Attaches to a drill for fast, easy stirring. The blades fold down so you can easily insert it into a barrel or glass carboy. When you turn the drill on, the blades expand to create a powerful stirring action. We do not recommend using in a carboy that is topped full. (The stirrer displaces too much liquid and creates a vortex that will send wine out of the top.) In these cases a hollow racking cane works exceptionally well. 
 
Works with 3/8" or larger drills. Stirrer is around 22" long.

We use it multiple times a year to gently stir lees during fermentation then to stir additions of sulfur or tartaric acid, et al. Very handy and easy to sanitize.

Bought this for wine making, but I also make beer.

Can this be used to do the whirlpool at the end of the boil? Will it stand up to the heat?
Joe somes on Feb 16, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Don’t use this for the whirlpool after flameout when making beer. The plastic blades will deform into curves. I had to take my unit apart, Heat the blades and bend them back into shape.

Works great on cold/warm liquids.
Once attached to a drill and angled correctly, can this be used on stacked barrels?

BEST ANSWER: Not with the racks (7" 2 barrel) and cordless drill we use - I just tried it. We use both 60 and 30g barrels and there's not enough clearance to get the drill onto the stirrer inserted into the barrel.
What is the length?
Kari Mahe on Feb 7, 2019
BEST ANSWER: Hi Kari - The length is 24".

Lee's stirrer works great. Better than the whip it in my opinion.

Bought one that got damaged in shipping and they quickly sent me another one no hassle. Great customer service thank you

Love it
I wanted something that could be used would both wide-mouth carboys and narrow glass one-gallon jugs. This is perfect, even fits in my supply box.

Works great for degassing, threw out the old wine whip plastic tool.
Sturdy and quick to degass my wine after failure to degass properly with wine whip. I still had co2 after 9 months of aging. This seems to do the trick. Now I am ready to reuse my carboys for this year's batch.

Great equipment
I have had this exact model for over five years, absolutely love it! Rugged, easy to clean/sanitize. Recommended.

Like a charm...
For what I use it for, I use it for stirring/aerating my must and for de-gassing, it works well. It's easy to clean/sanitize. You can easily attach it any 3/8" drill and it's long enough to reach inside a 6 gallon carboy. Take care not to spin it on the sides of whatever vessel your using, as I heard from others, that it might break the plastiic paddles. If used correctly, I think you'll get the most out of this handy tool. I hope this info helps.

Lees Stirrer
I received the stirrer, looks great, BUT... the blades come off as soon as you sue it, the screw comes loose, and the blades come right off.
