Hello Andy,

Welcome.  You did good.  The only thing I would suggest is to wait until the
particles have dispersed throughout the water.  This will take about 12
hours.  That way you  are sure of an even distribution of the silver.

Storing in brown containers is OK if you don't want to see how it is doing.
Storing in clear HDPE containers such as soft drink containers will let you
see whether the CS is plating out.  Don't store in direct sunlight or near
magnetic fields or in the refrigerator.  They all cause fallout.  Don't
shake it before use.  Filter it through a coffee filter after you make it do
get rid of dregs.

You have made what we call basic CS.  It may have particles of various
sizes.  The large ones will fall out.  Fine ones will stay in suspension.
Make sure you use distilled water.

Most persons start with a small amount and work up to the amount they feel
comfortable with.  I suggest you start with one teaspoon a day and work you
way up to what you feel comfortable with.  If you don't have problems, that
may be a good prophylactic dose.  If you have problems, take more and
observe your reactions.  It is pretty hard to overdose unless you have made
your CS improperly.

Good luck.
