Okay listers, You know the silver I made the other day for the first time? Well, I did a little experiment day before yesterday. I was just dying to know what it was I had ended up with. So I dug out 3 identical plastic food storage containers from the cupboard, made sure they were spotlessly clean, measured and filled each of them with cold milk from the same container. Capped the first one and wrote "control" on it. Added one teaspoon of CS from the HomeCure people that I had bought for $49 a quart, capped and labeled it. Added one teaspoon of my homemade CS, capped and labeled that.
Set them on the kitchen countertop and let them start rotting. Didn't see anything all day yesterday but when I got up this morning the control milk had completely solidified. The HomeCure CS milk was still a liquid. My homemade CS milk was (sniff sniff) halfways in between. I would actually say a little more on the solidified side but not totally. Am I ever disappointed. I've made 2 batches of this stuff so far. The first time it went about an hour and 20 minutes. The second time it went for an hour and 5 minutes after seeding it with some from the first batch. The only difference I noticed between the batches was that the seeded batch formed feathers on the one electrode a little quicker (but not much) than the first batch did. If you all remember, I am using the simple setup of 3 9-volt batteries, 2 cups of water and the silver wires immersed 3 and a half inches. I filtered both batches through a paper towel as no matter how careful I was in removing the feathered electrode, some tiny dots of black remained floating in the water and didn't settle out. Should I not have filtered it? So what do I do now?? Let it run longer? Quit filtering it? Buy a generator? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
