    Default Re: Swirling or stirring - what's the difference

    laboratory procedure would be to swirl or to use a magnetic stirrer while the titrant is being added. Some pool stores do use magnetic stirrers. It's just faster. If you swirl be sure to do it for 10 to 30 seconds between drops for good mixing. Manual stirring is probably not much faster, magnetic stirrers spin pretty fast and will create a vortex in the liquid similar to a blender.
