Dear Stephen: I have stopped using the Scotch Brite scrubby pad in favor of using "White Distilled Vinegar" on a paper towel. This removes the tarnish without removing so much silver. Also I clean the wires with Vinegar just before brewing the next batch. This removes fingerprint oils and tarnish from the silver. This results in much more repeatable CS production.

Dear Members We produce very good CS using LVDC. When the process is complete, there is no silver oxide residue in the water at all. All that remains is a very thin film of black oxide on the electrodes (silver ions having bonded with any free oxygen in the water) which one simply wipes clean with a tissue or paper towel once the electrodes have been removed. After some time, however, the electrodes go a little dull in colour. Does anyone know of a good non-toxic cleaning liquid or substance that one can apply to restore the shiny clean surface of the silver? I know one can use a little steel wool or scouring pad, but I'm trying to avoid that since it is rather harsh on the surface of the electrodes. Any feedback will be appreciated. Regards Steve
