Just to clarify something for myself. Assuming you have a current limited
setup, by increasing the size of the electrode (keeping the current
constant), would you technically not get a better solution as the particle
size would be smaller?
Particle size tends to get smaller as the current density on the anode
decreases. At around 1 mA to square inch, it seems to plateau, that is
reducing the current density further makes less and less difference on
the particle size.
If so, is there a point where the particles get too small?
Optimum particle size is I believe 2 atoms. You cannot reduce particle
size below 2 atoms, if you do then it would be ionic.

Thanks,

It is not the number of electrodes, but the electrode area that is
important. Doubling the size an an electrode and adding a second one
should have similar effects. If you increase the area, then the current
can be increased by the same proportion, and the time to brew will go
down inversely.
