Yep, I did that once too, added h2o2 too soon, and presto. I let it
set a few days, then started diluting some of it down to what read as
10ppm, then added h2o2 one drop at a time per quart. It only took a
couple of drops, maybe a few, and it got clearer, and the ppm went up.
It did not get as clear as I would like but it still worked. It had a
heavier tyndall, but then mine started out much higher ppm I think.

TO: Old hand CS-ers and Chemistry types;
First, the history:
I make 2gal.+ batches using 1ma DC and 60" of wetted #14, .999 silver
wire. I normally stop when I get about 20ppm on the PWT.
This time I stopped at 15 because I didn't want to let run overnight.
The next morning I restarted the batch. So far so good. But then, I
developed a splitting headache and completely forgot the batch.
I remembered it eight hours later. It was over 25 on the PWT., it
was clear with a hint of yellow, had a fine tyndel with a few
sparkles.
NOW THE KICKER:
I thought to add H2O2 to create mostly ionic silver. But when I added
1oz of H2O2, the batch turned a milky gray-white.
Did I use too much H2O2? and what did I make? (other than a mess).
TIA;
Bruce A.
