The less you do the better, Ma'am. Don't do anything to the jar you make it in, except keep it covered between batches. Don't touch the electrodes. If you use the puppy's polarity switching setting there'll never be anything to wipe! They may turn dark, but all that is is the microscopic roughness that results from the silver atoms leaving the surface. Let the surface stabilize however it wants to and see if things don't get on just fine. The electrodes will last a lot longer, too. Don't do anything with your empties except re-fill them when you make more CS. If anybody wants to take a swig from the bottle, make sure they don't actually touch the bottle to their lips, but simply pour from the bottle into the mouth. Other than that, no problem! Your containers may eventually get a faintly visible coating of silver on the inside. If that really bothers you, then rinse them out with a swish of 3% hydrogen peroxide like you get from the chemist's or grocery store, then several more times with distilled water. They'll be clean as a whistle. Don't bother to dry the containers out between uses. What do expect is going to grow in them, anyway? Silver'll kill just about anything, won't it? <grin> Let us know how it works out, okay? Be well! Mike D.
