Conclusion:
The small sparkles [course grained] as seen against a background of a fine grained TE consists of oxides that have fallen off an electrode.
Oxides are pretty much inert, so the effect is merely cosmetic.
If left undisturbed for several days, small black spheroids of oxides should form on the bottom of the container which should stabilize and isolate these oxides from the rest of the water and TE should become uniformly fine grained.
I'm watching to confirm this.

What I've noticed is that my Mason jar has taken on a dark coating. I'm assuming this is silver oxide.

Since that happened my CS has consistently [so far] been clear instead of yellow.

But then, I'm also using starter from my clear batches.

Hummmm. How to tell.
