Paul, You still didn't answer the question of keeping CS in a plain glass bottle but with some dark cloth over it, or storing it out of light's reach. I see no difference in this over using *brown* bottles; in fact, it's probably better to keep ALL light away from the home-brews.
And what about refridgeration? Dameon ________________________ Dameon and silver-listers: It is not my intent to argue that somehow HVAC produced CS isn't OK, or anything like that. It's just that we're trying to establish a protocol for the ones who cannot afford an expensive HVAC machine, so that we can make a product that will produce repeatably reliable results. The success you have had with your HVAC silver is great, and I would never suggest that you should change, or try to follow the proposed protocol yourself, unless you just want to. For those of us who must use cheap, low-voltage DC methods to make CS, the solutions that we can make for only a few bucks and a little time *NEED* to be kept away from bright light and electro-chemical influences. Thus, Bob Beck and others have learned that using brown glass works to keep the product viable longer. The purpose of the protocol is to provide a method that is relatively inexpensive for as many as want to to produce and test a workable product. If I had the money, I'd want to have a machine that made a product with indefinite shelf life, too. I don't begrudge anyone who does. But let's not confuse the discussion about how we're going to produce LVDC CS by introducing apples and oranges comparisons with HVAC CS.
