Glenn 50mm spacing allows the silver ions to solvate and disperse, and limits dendrite formation on cathode. Are you in a hurry? The time required relates to the current passed, if you limit the current you extend the time required, but make a finer brew. Stirring lengthens the time required also. And of course the time depends upon the concentration required. I don't really know how long your set up will take, but I took a shot based on the bulk cs I have brewed. I presume you have some sort of testing equipment?
ratchets, Ivan. -----Original Message----- From: lighthawk1 [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, 19 October 2002 3:23 p.m. To: [email protected] Subject: CS>brewing parameters Ivan, thanks I will be starting a new and improved batch tonight. Why the 50mm spacing? Does that serve to limit arcing? My generator has jacks for the electrodes which are soldered in a matching male jack. These are 20mm apart, but I do not have to use that spacing with clips. I'll cut the silver to match both the 1/2 and 1 gal containers in length They are approx the same depth. I'll closely monitor the brewing current as it progresses and use constant stirring as before. That way I can program the %current reduction with some accuracy. With the 1/2 gallon container and no current limiting and a shorter electrode length I was going approx.5 hrs. Do you really think a day or two?? How do other units get the job done quicker? radishes, Glenn -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
