[(ok, ions are particles too, but you know what I mean)
-Yep, yep, know what you mean.
[So if your brew is highly ionic]
-Remember it's only going to be highest in ionic content *immediately* after
cessation of brewing, things will change while it's sitting until a point of
stabilization has been attained, some ions will be lost to collisions thus
forming particle clusters or crystals etc.
[However, a heavy tyndall effect is ok as long as the brew is crystal clear.]
-And THAT is MY philosophy on EIS, be it clear OR coloured, if it's coloured
then that colour must be a pure, clean, crystal clear colour {oxymoron? you
should know what I mean though} and transparent as I've explained before, NOT
murky, NOT cloudy, and NOT anything else, just pure clear colour {oops, there's
that oxymoron again}.
I may not necessarily be a follower of a flock, but I know what I produce and
how I produce it and I'm not bothered in the slightest about colour, even tea
coloured following my interpretation of my colour rule.

There's a place for ions AND particles, and particles of ANY size {within the
limits I believe we all understand of course}. I don't see a problem using my
own interpretation of colour quality.
[I am always trying for highly ionic CS, with as few particles as possible.]
-I suggest you don't let any sit around if that's your preference. I'm
encouraged to ask why you prefer high ionic content? I don't believe you're
going to have much of a choice if it's not consumed immediately upon cessation
of brewing.
