Hi Beth, Yes, That is one way of looking at it. Uncontrolled, the voltage across the electrodes stays constant, and the current increases with time because the resistance of the water plus silver decreases (conductivity increases.) One way is to insert a constant current module so that current

Runaway is due to current rising with water conductivity. Stirring helps mitigate the effects, but only just so much. You didn't stir constantly either, so high concentrations zones formed, drawing even more current. ode At 09:27 AM 11/5/2010 -0700, you wrote: LOL You are absolutely

So then it is a matter of lessening the current as time goes on Is that what the silver puppy is designed to do? Because as I watched it near the end, there was alot of smoke coming off of the rod. It was probably too much. Beth    Runaway is due to current rising with water conductivity.

Using warm water [under 120 deg F] and making a small batch [8 oz]... will speed it up at first and as the water cools, it will circulate, then with the cooled water being less conductive, will help prevent runaway..as will keeping the electrodes as far apart as possible, especially

LOL You are absolutely right! It must have been late! It was 2 hrs 20min Not 1hr 40 Do you think that is why it went yellow today? Or was it from the runaway theory? Because it got a good stir every 20 min session. Beth --- If I've read your times right it took 2 hours 20 minutes.   For that

Hi Dee So do you stir it in that 5 hour time? That was what I was wondering about. Is it lack of constant stirring or is it the runaway theory? It was not yellow but a tad bit cloudier than pure water last night and now it is clear clear but yellow. Beth No, because mine doesn't go yellow

Hi Beth, I have the Silver Puppy with the magnetic stir i.e. a little plastic tube spins continuously in the bottom of the jar, so it is being stirred the whole time it is 'brewing.' When I first started making my own CS i did get the occasional yellow batch, and very occasionally I get one
