Could you tell me where you got your recipe and how you came up with that number? What were the details of the recipe? > I have been using it and so have some of my friends.

So your protocol actually yeilds something like 5 or 6 ppm. That is known to be an effective concentration if used in adequate amounts. > Am I doing something wrong or is the reality that it doesn't > require different temperatures to produce different ppm in the > water? I'd like to hear more about your technique before offering an opinion. Temperature usually effects things quite a lot. But I've never tested the effect of temperature when using salt as an electrolyte, as you're doing. > What is the correct way to make CS water? That's a good question! <G> > Also anotther quick question? What is the difference in using pure > saline or soda in this process? I seem to be confused. Saline contains sodium chloride (NaCl), which is common salt. By soda I presume you're talking about sodium bicarbonate, or baking soda? That's Na2CO3, which doesn't contain chlorine and is assumed to create less toxic compounds with the silver than NaCl. I'm guessing that you expected the higher concentrations because the recipe you chose told you that, using salt, you'd get 1 ppm per minute of processing time at room temp, and a doubling of that rate for every 10 degrees the water was heated, or something very close to this? If that's the case, then I think those claims need to be studied a bit. They're probably an okay approximation over some ranges of values, but can't be pushed that far. And they don't tell you what the limits are, if they know. > Bare with this beginner and my spelling. Thanks Jerry Since the only word I saw you misspell was "Bare", I think this is kind of a funny comment! You've made good progress, Jerry, and good CS from the sound of it. Now you're joining us in the process of finding out in more detail just what we *are* doing! Thanks for your help. Be well, Mike D.
