Hi Susie,
I ran into a similar problem last year. It turned out the WalMart dw
suddenly changed and was producing a very hard coat on the anode.
The coating was removed by switching electrodes to make it the
cathode, but the new anode now became coated with the same material.
It was very black, very hard, and scraping or adding H2O2 would not
remove it. I contacted the manufacturer, who was very helpful but
could not find any reason for the change.
Adding H2O2 to the resulting cs produced a brilliant yellow flash
that instantly turned white. It took a great deal of H2O2 to turn
the solution clear, but it was not intended for drinking.
I found a different brand of dw that didn't do this, but it took 7
or 8 passes, swapping the electrodes each time, to clean off both
electrodes and start producing normal cs.
I did an experiment later that traced the flow of silver ions while
the brew was in progress. This used ordinary salt to produce silver
chloride:

At the end of the experiment, the anode was coated with the same
hard material as before, and it took a long time to remove it by
swapping electrodes.
Due to the similarities in the coating and the reaction with H2O2,
it may be possible that the hard anode coat was some form of
chlorine that somehow got past the distillation process. Some
municipalities add extra chlorine to the drinking water at the start
of summer to reduce bacteria contamination. And that's about the
time my problems started:)
So if your anode has a hard black coat that won't scrape off, maybe
try different brands of dw, but be prepared for a difficult time
removing the coating.
Best Wishes,
Mike Monett
