Look at this on eBay:

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=291576495713

Super Mute Mini Magnet USB Desk Cooler
Portable Cooling Fan for PC Laptop Office


Would this make a good DIY stir plate.

you would have to hack it to mount the magnet and then mount it in/to something
So if you need to hack something may as well hack together something better for a few bucks more

PC Fan, DC power supply +
PWM/LED Dimmer ~$3 ( e.g. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/DC-12V-8A-LED-Light-Strip-Dimmer-Adjustable-Brightness-Controller-GU-/371459165437)
Rare Earth Magnets ~$1 (e.g. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-10-x-Super-Strong-Small-Disc-Magnets-5mm-x-2mm-Round-Rare-Earth-Neodymium-/121492021818)

That 1st link didn't work for me. Damn.

What about this for a cool stir plate?

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=271327867742

Why get a dc power supply when I have a bunch of phone charging plugs with the USB connection?

I bet the 1st one would fit well into a project box. Only need magnets and a pot I reckon.

and a 5v fan is going to have less grunt than 9 or 12v, but YMMV

I too had one, but the thing only holds 45L of wort, was planning on using it as a 1V system, but i need to do at least 40L batch's, which means 45L boil volume.
Which means i had no headroom for the boil. Anyway i've since returned it.
 
$4 for 50g of hops!

A new variety Ive never heard of before Humulus Genus. Some great info on hear too. Did you know hops are also known as yeast flowers? Some growing tips as well. Hops love the cold. Ive ordered 10 packs :lol:
 
Not sure if i'm missing something, but Humulus Genus is Latin for the climbing hop plant.
They don't give a specific variety that i can see.

I did learn one thing tho - Hops can be smoked !!

Turns out I've been buying seeds this whole time and wasting them on bittering/aroma/dry-hopping:
