Hi Sandy, The people who DO know are Trem, Marshall, Ode, and others.
explain: I have great respect for the SilverGen control system among others, in that I haven't managed to invent a similar one myself :-) The electronics design is more that I could cope with. My own device is current control but not auto shutoff. I do not use distilled water cos of the hassle. So I'm in a different league to distilled water/auto current/emdpoint sensing/shutoff. However I've been on the Silver List a while and learning since about 1999. And my stance is controversial. If I do wipe It will be with a kitchen towel; conscious that tiny bits of paper will be snagged by the microscopically rough silver and that they will maybe end up in the CS. What I normally do is swish in the freshly made CS and allow the rods to rest without electricity applied, either in the CS or in a fresh container of clean water, then allow to dry by resting on paper (no rubbing) and store. ie I don't fuss with it too much, it is part of the process. I haven't seen a yellow batch for many years. Grey yes, due to running too long.
