<p>Guys, on some other advice I've emailed the lab warehouse to enquire/complain about the scratches.</p>
<p>all the flask have external scratches, which can weaken them.</p>
<p>some have small bubbles which are difficult to distinguish between bubbles and chips in the interior.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I don't think it's going to matter too much for us - but be very careful with thermal shock.<br></br>If anyone is not happy with the flasks when you get/see them, I'm more than happy to sort out getting them…</p>

<p>In the grand scheme of things, these flasks were pretty cheap - I won't be returning mine, lets put it that way.</p> Unpacked, everything is there…tag:www.forum.realbeer.co.nz,2012-04-10:1500433:Comment:1528922012-04-10T10:32:38.092ZBrent Marquishttp://www.forum.realbeer.co.nz/profile/BrentMarquis
<p>Unpacked, everything is there.</p>
<p>All the flasks have some minor cosmetic scratching on the outside - I assume this is par for the course since all of them have this from 1L up to 5L.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Attached are some pics of a 5L flask with 4L of water in it, stirring up a storm. It threw the normal shaped stir bar, although I didnt try and ramp it up slowly.... but the oval stir bar I bought, ramped up carefully worked a treat, as per pics.<br></br><br></br>I think the normal shaped stir bar…</p>

<p>Dunno what I would do if it threw a bar with a starter in there... add another bar and hope for the best, as you cant get the first bar out....</p>

<p>Enough rambling - I'll get hold of you guys that made purchases individually to sort pickup/drop off.

Well the stir plates we are getting are 125mm or somewhere around there, the 5L flask will overhang.<br />
I'm happy to provide some measurements when this stuff arrives, hopefully tuesday.
