Re: HELP with CS. results??

The grey or black on one of the silver wires is normal. I typically brew my CS for 3 hours and after each hour or so I wipe the wires clean. The gold speck on the other wire I’m not sure what that is. Are you using distilled water? Could be an impurity in the water.

1.I got a machine for making colloidal silver and I make 1 hour per one cup and I notice that ONE of the filaments have the grey powder that was covering the filament but the other has like a little bit of gold color there. I wonder if only just one of the silver filaments was working and the other not??/if that will be the scenario Does the colloidal silver still will be fine.the color at the end was compleately clear.

I get that also but clean my wires every hour.What makes for higher PPM? The best I can get now is 18. My first batch was 25. GeneFrom: Tom <tom@...> Sent: Thu, April 21, 2011 11:48:05 AMSubject: Re:

according the the mfr, it's safer to use lower ppm, and take more of it. making

less ppm gives a finer particle size.

Your machine's working fine. Silver is only discharged from one electrode, the

anode. The other trode, the cathode, provides a pathway, or completes a circuit

for flow of electricity between both electrodes when submerged in water - the

action of electrolysis, same as a car battery, one trode is positive and the

other is negative.

If both electrodes are silver, and you have the ability to alternate polarity or

can swap those trodes over, I suggest you do so, as you will maintain even wear

on both electrodes instead of pulling silver off only one all the time.

The discolouration is a normal part of electrolysis. I recommend you remove

those trodes each 30 minutes to wipe them clean with paper towel before

resubmerging them - if you think they need cleaning or not. That 'gold' colour

could be hydrogen bubbles adhering to the negative electrode, the cathode, which

forms a fuzzy pale colour in appearance. The trode which releases silver into

the water, the anode, will take on a black appearance which I believe is silver

oxide buildup on the positive electrode.

Just clean those trodes at regular intervals and you shouldn't have too much

trouble. Be prepared for one of your batches to turn lemon or more yellowish in

colour, as producing this stuff in the home is an art, not a science, and there

are many factors which may influence the appearance of one batch to another.
