The laser just gives you some eyeball idea of particle density and size.
If you filter by letting the bigguns settle, it'll tell you when it's ready
to decant.
Also good for playing with the cat while waiting, or shining on the local
thugs chest at night for grins and giggles.
You know...so the cat will attack him while he's on edge thinking about
getting shot.

want to make the best I can with what I am able to afford.
Thank you.

H202 works as I've used it several times to lighten the golden color. But
Neville is correct yellow is okay in the world of CS. I never throw out
CS even when I started out and made mud looking CS. I would put it in a
spray bottle and use it as a disinfectant or water the indoor plants with
it. CS as low as 3ppm is effective so don't trip on the 8ppm. That's been
my experience!

Have a great day!

Thanks for the reply Neville, but I am afraid I'm not so laid back about
things as you are <lol> I do like to know the 'whys' and 'wherefores' so
to speak. I didn't get a reply about the iodine/CS/DMSO thing which was
disappointing--but also I now have had two batches of CS go pale yellow
for no reason.
I realize that this happens and there is no one explanation really for
it, but I thought I would try the H202 thing with it as this is supposed
to also be beneficial. i.e. it splits the colloids into tinier
fragments (see Ode's site) The first lot I dropped in two drops of 35%
H202 and this went immediately clear. This had a weak tyndall effect
however, although it read 10ppm on the TDS meter.
The second lot, I put in one drop of 35% H202 and this had a really
strong tyndall effect - but the ppm was only 8. This solution is also
very slightly cloudy. I put in another drop of H202 and I think it has
now cleared. They both have tiny bubbles at the bottom. Has anyone any
ideas or explanations for this? dee

again, if you're making good quality stuff why would you want to hit it
with HP? Don't be phased by colour, unless it's a murky colour.
