Hi Jan. There's really no reason to wait 72 hours to test your ppm-level. The
testers aren't terribly accurate, and you should know what ppm-level you have
right after brewing anyway. Your ppm-level is likely only going drop a couple
of points, at the #3 setting on your generator. I think you've gotten a
mis-impression about the importance of the *stabilization period* -- it's
really just an *interesting thing*, not something to gear your life around.
There's no need to buy another generator -- the one you have will make larger
batches. Ask about that on the ESN list -- several members brew by the gallon.

MA, I was going to wait till after 72 hours is up (right about now) to test for
ppm level. Isn't there a 36 to 72 hour stabilization period ??? ... still
trying to get all this straight in my mind. I might have to do like Paula,
and get the Silver Puppy that's designed to make larger batches -- for SenSee.

OK -- there's your problem. *Fast* mode isn't necessary, and may be
contradictory to making a good brew. Leave your Colloid Master set on
standard. You don't have to figure out how to change the polarity of the
electrodes -- the machine does that automatically. And no -- I could not scrub
the jars out with soap and water -- soap can add a film that can be hard to
remove, and could contaminate your brew for awhile. You've got a good start
cleaning the interior of your jar by making four batches and cleaning it with
clean paper towels.
Since you now have a quart of pretty good CS, I'd use that for SenSee --
rather than the original batches. Since you used fast mode, you have created
large-particle CS. Won't kill her, but won't be as effective getting to the
protozoa. I'd save it for topical use instead.

P.S. You got a Hanna Tester, didn't you? Did you test your batches to
determine ppm-level?
