I get a brew measuring 14.8 on PWT with very light tindall, but has sparkles. After a few hours the tindall completely disappears, and PWT shows 9ppm.. What is it with sparkles? ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2003 11:49 PM Subject: RE: CS>NO3 and NO Warning
Hi "Ole Bob", As usual, I have a few questions. First, this is my understanding. Please correct me if I am wrong. Ag+ = silver ions NO = nitric oxide NO3 = nitrate Question 1. You say you are measuring NO3 (nitrate). Why hasn't the NO3 combined with the Ag+ (silver ions) to form AgNO3 (silver nitrate)? Question 2. Evidently NO3 decreases oxygen flow in the body and NO increases it. I did a quick search on the web for "nitric oxide" and found all sorts of claims about how swell it is. Wouldn't one cancel out the other? I've been jump starting my brew by hitting it with 100vdc and backing it down when the action starts but I am now wondering if I should modify my method. As always, Thank you for your time.

I would not call this LVDC but rather MVDC, and they both had serious problems. The CS was crystal clear, one with a very weak T.E., and the other with a medium T.E., both had almost no sparkles. Let me detail the test results and my comments. A 6 hour brew at 90 Volts dropping to 24.5 volts and 3.24 ma. Conductance = 27.5 uS/cc; pH = 5.04; Ag+ = 14.5; T.E. very weak with very few sparkles, and no taste. sound great doesn't it? I could not read the NO3 as something in the brew caused a turbidity to appear in the sample. The NO = 1.44 PPM which is greater than the FDA allowance of 1 PPM. A 31 hour brew at 90 Volts dropping to 5 volt and 5.65 ma. Conductance = 139 uS/cc !!! ; pH = 5.34; Ag+ = 52.8 PPM; Medium T.E. with very few sparkles, but with an after taste. WOW 52.8 ppm, BUT note the NO3 = 5 PPM and the NO = 4 PPM and both show a turbidity during these tests. Before you screw around with voltages over about 37 volts, get someone to check these two items for you, as they are not desireable. No wonder the medical profession has problems with home made cs !!!!! I would only use this material externally. I guess I am "soon old and late smart" as I have not tested other people's CS made with high voltages, but something triggered me to run these tests, which I normally do not do for LVDC, but this is not LVDC!!!
