One can dispense with using high voltages to get things going by simply spiking the water with about 10% from the previous batch.

Yeah, 6 volts is pretty low. 30 v is common, and I use much higher, like 2000 v to get things going, then cut way back as the EIS becomes more conductive, to limit the current to a few milliamps.

It'll work, but it'll take a long time.
I'd find a power supply that gives 30 to 40 volts DC.
or hook up 3 or 4 9volt batteries together.

Even then I would expect, with that much water, it would take several
hours.

Try using a mere 8 oz glass of water with your setup.

At 6 volts, I'd still expect several (4 or 5 or more) hours to see
results.
