Mini-Beadbeater-PlusOverview The new Mini BeadBeater Plus is a high energy bead mill designed to violently agitate up to a half gram sample of biological material sealed inside a 2 ml microcentrifuge vial containing tiny glass, zirconia or steel lysing beads. The grinding action of the beads (beadbeating) rapidly disrupts microorganisms and plant and animal tissue in 5 90 seconds.

Overview

The new Mini-BeadBeater-Plus™ is a high-energy bead-mill designed to violently agitate up to a half gram sample of biological material sealed inside a 2 ml microcentrifuge vial containing tiny glass, zirconia or steel lysing beads. The grinding action of the beads (beadbeating) rapidly disrupts microorganisms and plant and animal tissue in 5-90 seconds. Being an upgrade of the venerable MiniBeadbeater-1, new features include a programmable timer, a more powerful brushless motor and 115/230 VAC compatibility.

Because cell disruption occurs inside sealed microvials, cross-contamination during homogenization is completely eliminated - an important feature for nucleic acid isolation. And time is saved because no clean-up is needed between samples. Sterile technique is easily accommodated for recovery of intracellular virus and bacteria from plant and animal cells and the non-foaming, non-aerosol method is ideal for recovery of enzymes, membranes and intracellular organelles.

The Mini-BeadBeater-Plus is also used for dry- or cryo-grinding. Heavier zirconia or steel beads and special breakage-resistant microvials are used. Hard samples such as hair, bone, teeth, seeds, and minerals are powdered in 5 - 30 seconds. All protocols developed with the Mini-BeadBeater-Plus are transferable to larger, higher-capacity MiniBeadBeater models.

Features:

  • Versatile - processes up to 400 mg (wet weight) of bacteria, yeast, algae, tissue culture cells, and plant and animal tissue.
  • Simple to operate with intuitive digital controls.
  • Two programmable time presets.
  • Safety interlock lid design.
  • Totally sealed homogenization - no dangerous aerosols.
  • Uses disposable 2 ml screw-cap microvials - no sample cross-contamination.
  • Proven, near horizontal shaking with a compressed figure-8 (3-D) pattern.
  • Powered by a maintenance-free, high torque brushless motor.
  • Dual voltage compatibility: 110 or 220 volt.

It’s fine, very basic- light during brewing doesn’t work, but it still brews a good cup!
Color: Black, Style: coffeemaker
Sadly I accidentally dropped my coffee pot into my sink trying to wash it and it shattered the entire bottom, so I just bought a similar one, same brand. It works fine, but it doesn’t work as the instructions say. Supposedly when you push the clock button to brew it will give you a green light on the left upper side, and when it’s done brewing it will have a red logo on the bottom right side. I cannot get it to give me the green light for brewing, but if I just hold the clock button down, I’ll hear it stat to gurgle and then it brews. So that part is definitely (at least on mine) not functioning properly, but I don’t care enough to return it and be without coffee another morning, and B&D is always a decent brand. I have a $2800k fancy espresso/latte/cappuccino maker that grinds fresh beans and I use the plain old coffee pot way more because I drink too much coffee to make cup after cup, I want the whole carafe. Besides that one faulty light, it works like any other $35 coffee pot, no frills, and it gets the job done.

Simple, Powerful, and So Much Easier Than Traditional Vacuum Sealers
Color: White
I’ve used traditional vacuum sealers before, and this handheld one is honestly so much easier to work with. The design is simple and compact, and it takes up almost no space in the kitchen compared to the larger machines. One thing I really appreciate is how easy it is to operate. The one-button design makes sealing quick, and the suction is surprisingly strong for such a small device. It removes the air from the bags quickly and seals everything tightly. The bags themselves are also really well made. The material feels thick and durable, so I don’t have to worry about them puncturing easily, even when storing things with sharper edges. Being reusable is a big plus too. Overall this has been a really convenient way to keep food fresh longer without dealing with a bulky machine. If you want something simple, effective, and easy to use for everyday food storage, this is a great option.

My New Favorite Kitchen Gadget: Compact & Effective!
Color: White, Color: White
I recently added this handheld vacuum sealer to my kitchen, and it has quickly become an indispensable tool. From the moment I unboxed it, I was impressed by its sleek, compact design. It truly is the size of a pepper mill, making it incredibly easy to store without cluttering my countertops. Using it is surprisingly simple - I just press a button, and it efficiently seals the bag in mere seconds. The powerful suction is evident, ensuring a tight seal every time. I've noticed a significant improvement in how long my food stays fresh, which has dramatically reduced my grocery waste. The reusable bags are a fantastic bonus - they are durable, easy to clean, and perfect for various items. I appreciate that they are safe for the dishwasher, refrigerator, and microwave, adding to their convenience. Whether I'm sealing leftover dinner, fresh produce, or even dry goods, this little machine handles it all with ease. It's incredibly versatile for all types of food, from meats to fruits. The removable water tank is a thoughtful design, making cleaning a breeze and preventing any issues. I even take it with me for camping trips, as its cordless and portable nature makes it ideal for outdoor adventures. This vacuum sealer is a smart investment for anyone looking to extend food freshness and save money. It has genuinely transformed my food storage habits for the better. I highly recommend this product to anyone seeking efficiency and freshness in their kitchen.

Exceptional for freshness
Color: White
This is great! I really like how this works and ease of use. I wish there was a snack size bag for smaller items. But these sizes work perfectly for most things.
