: Mixing for a minute is about right. But 6-8 squirts of the MAS pumps sounds
: like a fairly large batch,though I could be wrong about that. I like to
: mix with arts and crafts quality tongue depressors which are much cheaper
: than those you buy from West systems. Being broader than chopsticks, I
: would think they introduced less air into the mixture. Also, I think small
: batches release trapped air faster than larger batches.

I just use small pieces of strips, left overs from stipping the boat. 3/4" x 1/4" strips make nice stiring sticks and are free.
