I used a low voltage generator and doubled the length of the copper wires and
just bent them up and then back in...I even got a build-up on one of the
electrodes and had to stop to wipe off the wire...took about four hours and I
got a nice beam.Debbie

list scientists, Please help me understand my observed differences in brewing
colloidal silver vs colloidal copper. My generator uses a constant current of
about 300 microamps, polarity switched about every 20 minutes. Because of the
long time it takes to brew a batch, stirring is not needed because polarity
switching and natural (Brownian) particle movement provide adequate particle
disbursement. The electrodes are #12 round wire, 5.5 inches long spaced about
2 inches. I use a quart of steam distilled water. For colloidal silver, the
brew time is about 24 hours. At the end of the brew, the voltage across the
electrodes is about 2.5 volts. Tyndall effect is normal. To brew colloidal
copper, I used copper wire instead of silver, with all else being the same. At
the end of 24 hours, the Tyndall was barely noticeable. So I let it brew
another 24 hours. At this time, the Tyndall effect was more noticeable, but
fainter than for the CS brew, meaning either there were less particles, and/or
they were smaller than the silver particles. The voltage across the electrodes
was about 7.2 volts, meaning the ionic conductivity was about 3 times lower
than the silver brew. My question: Why the substantial difference in brew
characteristics vs time? What chemically is different about the two
electrolyses? --Steve
