Interesting. I wonder if the coffee warmer would be hot enough to use for the method detailed by ceramicsystems? Maybe put an insulating layer on the outside of the pot?

I have concentrated EIS by putting it in a coffee carafe and putting it on the coffee maker hot plate. When it steams off about half of the water I refill it and repeat until the solution turns a dark gold to brown appearance. At that point if you add the same amount of distilled water as you reduced the solution will turn back to clear. So I would think you could reduce even farther and reconstitute it with distilled water from any concentration if you keep in mind the amount you removed. The buzz word in this is "distilled" as I wouldn't recommend using tap water but it might not make a difference. An interesting phenomenon here is that the color doesn't seem to indicate larger particle size as adding the original amount of distilled water returns it to clear. Dave
