Hello Glen,
You must have misread our information regarding Tyndall effect. Nowhere
does it say the effect is undesirable. What it does say is this. "TYNDALL
EFFECT. The clearly visible path of a beam of light through a colloidal
dispersion. Each of the tiny particles in the dispersion reflects the light
and scatters it. A true solution does not show this effect"
The difference between a solution and a dispersion is that in a solution,
all the solids have been dissolved. In a dispersion, the particles are
separated and are not dissolved.
If you see a faint beam, you're doing good. You won't see it in water even
if something is dissolved in the water. And the beam does not refract when
striking the particles. It reflects the light off the silver particles
dispersed in the water.

OK----I'm still learning about the process of creating CS ----thanks to you
here on the list. Now , I have one more question regarding the tyndall
effect. I went to the silvergen site and read that the laser refraction is
clearly visible with the tyndall effect. And that this effect is not a
desired one. My CS, after brewing for about 2.5 hours @ about 19 volts, has
a very faint beam thru it. This is only visible in a totally dark room. Now
the question: Do I have a true solution or not?
Thanks Glen
