EXHIBIT 99.1

MagStar Technologies, Inc.

Hopkins, MN

January 11, 2008

MagStar Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: MGST) (the “Company”) announces additional information and clarification of its press release dated January 9, 2008.   On January 9, 2008, the Company announced that it had set a record date of January 14, 2008 for the previously announced 1 for 2,000 reverse split of the Company’s common stock intended to take the Company private (the “Reverse Split”).  The Company would like to clarify that January 14, 2008 is the record date for the mailing of the Company’s Disclosure Document related to its going private transaction, and is not the record date for the completion of the Reverse Split, which remains February 5, 2008.   The Company still anticipates that it will distribute the definitive Disclosure Document for the Reverse Split to its shareholders on or around January 15, 2008.  Again, the Board of Directors has set a record date of February 5, 2008 for the Reverse Split, which coincides with the anticipated effective date of the Reverse Split.

The SEC has completed its review of the Company’s Schedule 13E-3.  On or around January 15, 2008, the Company anticipates that it will distribute the definitive Disclosure Document to its shareholders.  The Reverse Split will not be effective until the Company files an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the State of Minnesota, which the Company anticipates doing on or around February 5, 2008.  Prior to its effectiveness, the Company reserves the right to cancel the Reverse Split if it deems cancellation in the best interests of the Company.

As previously announced, under the terms of the reverse split, each 2,000 shares of the Company’s common stock will be converted into one share of common stock and holders of fewer than 2,000 shares of common stock on the record date will receive cash of $.425 per pre-split share.  We refer to the reverse split and the related payments to shareholders holding fewer than 2,000 pre-split shares as the “Reverse Split.”

The anticipated result of the Reverse Split will be to reduce the number of our shareholders of record to fewer than 300.  The Company intends to cease filing periodic reports with the SEC as soon as practicable following the Reverse Split.

The Company’s Board of Directors has approved the Reverse Split based on its determination that the Company achieves few of the benefits of public ownership because of a lack of an active trading market for its common stock, while remaining burdened with the significant costs of being a publicly held company.

Under Minnesota law, the Board of Directors of the Company may amend the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to conduct the Reverse Split without the approval of its shareholders.  Therefore, the Company is not seeking shareholder approval for the Reverse Split.

The Disclosure Document filed as an exhibit to the Schedule 13E-3 contains additional important information regarding the Reverse Split.  Copies of both the preliminary Disclosure Document, the amendments thereto, and the definitive Disclosure Document are available without charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or from the Secretary of the Company when the definitive Disclosure Document is mailed to shareholders.
