Hello,
I'm a new subscriber to this list, having arrived here by a very
circuitous route over a few years of reading about colloidal silver
and how to make it. And how not to make it. Marshall has been a lot
of help recently in this respect.
I'm sure this has already been discussed, but without being able to
consult the archives, I'd like to ask this anyway:
I'm looking, as is everyone else probably, for the best way to make
colloidal silver. I'm assuming that colloidal content is preferable
to ionic content. At least one website claims that it is not possible
to make good colloidal silver at home, as the process is too complicated.
That is one reason we often refer to what we make, and like as EIS,
electrically isolated silver. It is not possible to make 100% colloidal
silver the way we make it, but then we really don't want pure colloidal
silver anyway. We have found that a combination of colloidal and ionic
is best, which is what EIS is.
If that is true, then something else has been keeping me and my wife
cold- and flu- free for the past 3 years, and has cured both of us of
lyme disease. :-) I suspect I have been making some mixture of
colloidal and ionic.
Likely about 90% ionic and 10% colloidal.
More to the point -- if I am going to use electricity, silver, and
distilled water to make CS, what method will produce the highest
colloidal content: what voltage, AC or DC, what current?
Both HVAC and low voltage methods will produce between 10 and 15%
colloid, and 85 to 90% ionic. Don't worry about the ratio between the
two, for the most active go for the smallest particle size on the
colloid part, IE crystal clear EIS. If you have yellow EIS, you can
usually reduce the particle size by adding a few drops of hydrogen
peroxide per glass after it has sat for a couple of days.

And are there perhaps some other methods, like nanomaterialstore.com,
who makes silver nanoparticles that you could perhaps then mix with
distilled water, that might be even better? Certainly not cheaper, at
$90/gram of their product.
Cheers!
