Ironically my procedure is almost exactly the same as yours (including using the same glass jar w/out cleaning for many batches), except that I have only been rinsing twice w/distilled water. I don't get floaties every time below 1 o'clock, but when I do it's probably because of that (and/or inadvertently touching an electrode without realizing it). I am careful about what cleaning products I use in the area (since mine's on the kitchen counter, too).
Thanks much for the information.

I never get these under the 1 o'clock setting when I am careful about contamination. Don't touch the electrodes with your bare hands. Be careful about what you spray or use as cleaning products in the same room. Rinse the container three times with distilled water after cleaning. I use the same glass jar without cleaning for many batches with no floaties or particles. I wipe the electrode with Kleenex between batches. I make two quarts at a time in a canning jar. Only when I have gone past the 1 o'clock position on the dial have I had any floaters or sinkers in the solution. But yes you should filter them out with a coffee filter, or let them settle and pour off the liquid without distrubing the sediment. Trem may also have some suggestions. I made quite a few batches like that initially. Just had to learn good procedures as I keep my generator on the kitchen counter -- mainly to not use ANY cleaning product near it, and to always rinse a jar 3 times with distilled water after cleaning or using even well water to rinse.
