Hi Neville,
 
Its not that i have anything against yellow CS. From what i understand, clear 
is just better, as the particle size is smaller. Is there really much of a 
difference between yellow and clear CS?  
# From a personal perspective Kenny...NO!  On the odd occasion I myself get a 
lemon yellow, or deeper yellow result...Why? Any number of reasons.  Praps I 
just parted my hair on a different side on those production days?  Or praps I 
cooked my toast at the same time I was brewing and pollutants from over done 
toast may have entered the water {I don't use a lid when producing}.
 
There are many arguments for and against colour of solution, but simply put, 
literature states anything under 1 micron can be classified as a colloid.  Now, 
having said that, we know that *any*, and *all* particles present in our 
solutions will most certainly be *way, way* below a thousand nm in size so I'm 
not concerned in the slightest. 
 
Providing that the water is crystal clear and transparent, and appears to have 
an internal reflection of itself {hard to explain that}, then I don't believe 
there is absolutely anything wrong with it, from clear right on thru to golden, 
I may just take a little less of it in my daily regimen that's all, or praps 
I'll choose that solution for treating open wounds rather than a clear solution 
due to there being more/larger particles present for prevention of possible 
infection from external sources.
 
I do use the "thermal stirrer" that i bought from ode. Is that enough stirring 
power? I was wondering if this could be the problem?
# Yep, no worries, just thought I'd ask that's all <g>.
 
I will start cleaning the trodes at more regular intervals, and see if it 
helps. Thanks for your help, and any more advise would be greatly appreciated!
# The thing is, contaminants are ones worst nightmare with this stuff, and they 
can be introduced from anywhere and from any number of sources.  In my case, 
because I make my own units and don't have auto shutoff, I minimise the risk of 
any 'stuff' falling off my trodes into the water by removing them from the 
water to clean them every 30 minutes...if they need it or not!  It doesn't take 
me all that long to reach my desired ppm anyway so I just pick a time for 
production when I've nothing else pressing to do.
 
Each to their own of course, but that's my considered opinion on the subject of 
colour <g>.

Thanks to all others who replied as well-
