Re: CSQuestion for Marsha Hallett
Ions only come in one size. Ions are all too small for visible light to make visable. The difference in cloud color has to do with the rate of agglomeration of ions into particles and small particle into larger particles which is tied to ion emmission rates and particle hydration rates. Since stirring increases the hydration rate, the ion emmission rate can be increased with more current per electrode area and still get a white cloud. Too much heat [over 120 deg F] and the particle energy overcomes the hydration effect and a golden color results. If you see anything at all, you see metallic particles, hopefully in the lower end of the colloidal size range. A particle with No color is smaller than one that is yellow. Both may have their uses in a shotgun approach sort of way but a smaller particle is more likely to penetrate tissues better. Neither are harmful. Yellow CS may contain a significant portion of colorless particles. Compare TE density to depth of color and PPM. A heavy TE with pale yellow color is mostly small particle CS. A heavy TE with a deep yellow to brown color is mostly larger particle CS. A light TE is mostly ionic. [All given the same total silver content] ion cloud is not an accurate description of what you see, [because ions can't be seen] it's just what most people [mistakenly] call it, used for convenience in communication. From observation [maybe not entirely accurate observation and conclusions thereof]: White clouds make clear [colorless with a TE] CS which can sometimes turn yellow later. Golden clouds make yellow CS now. If yellow CS is what you want, producing golden whisps is a sure fire way to make it. On the extreme, using way too much current, those golden whisps can later agglomerate into black particle CS.

Not sure that is true.

Re: CSQuestion for Marsha Hallett
One of the main problems with timing CS batches is that using different water and electrode spacing can result in literally hours of time difference to get the same result. I suggest starting the timing process from the first evidence of the ion clouds appearance. I also suggest that if you do see golden whisps, rather than white, you are pulling too much current to make small particle CS and should remove a battery.

Thanks much Richard Dear Richard, Here you go! How to make Colloidal Silver the easy and sure way: You`ll need 3 nine-volt batteries, the square ones. (the Lithiums last 4 times longer than the alkalines, if you can afford them; they are about 21 bucks at Radio Shack) 2 five inch pieces of pure silver wire, 14 gauge, .999 fine, (not sterling as it has other metals in it.) 2 alligator clips, (the kind with 2 clips on either end of a plastic-coated wire, also available at the Shack) 2 cups of distilled water in a glass measuring cup, (I always use glass to make CS in. I have a cup used solely for making my CS.) A new green scrubber, just for this purpose. An empty water bottle to store your finished CS in. A pop top plastic bottle is just fine. Rinse the cup and storage bottle with distilled water to remove any dust or soap residue. Take the batteries and snap them together, one upside down on top of the other two. This will leave two empty posts on the batteries. Connect each silver wires to the two empty posts with the two alligator clips. Drop the wires into the water, with about 4 inches submerged, and about 1 inch apart. (As they tend to float around, you can put a candycane bend in the top of the wires and hang that over the lip of the cup, with the connectors hooked to the bend.) Don`t let the connectors get into the water. It is now working. You can`t get shocked by it. Now leave it and time for 30 minutes. You may notice some bubbles coming off one wire, and fine wisps of gold coming off the other, that is the Colloid forming! The bubbles are hydrogen, from the water. There will be a buildup of fuzz on one wire, that is silver oxide. It is harmless, but you can wipe it off with a paper towel. Replace the wires, and time for another 30 minutes. This one hour activation gives a CS of about 18 PPM. The longer it works, the higher the PPM. When finished, wipe off the wires with a paper towel, then with the green scrubber until the wires are shiny again, and detach the batteries. Store it all in a ziploc bag to keep it handy. The finished CS doesn`t need to be refrigerated. If you keep the bottle out where you see it, you`ll remember to take it. I take 3 big swallows a day for an active infection, sometimes even more. (My swallow is about 1/3 of a cup.) The silver particles are fine enough to be easily excreted, so taking more won`t hurt. If you hold the CS in your mouth for a few minutes, it will clean your mouth nicely. I take one swallow a day for a preventive. I use it topically too, and even in the eyes. It is mild and doesn`t sting. Splash some in the pits for a natural deodorant. It is bacteria that causes BO, and since CS kills the bacteria, no BO! CS doesn`t taste too bad either. Some folks notice a metallic tang, others don`t. I put some on my skin and let it dry for a sunburn, and was tan the next day. I use it for bug bites and stings too. Canker sores respond quickly. I have used CS for my pet birds, and always put some in the water bowl for my Pug dog. CS is even good for cut flowers, they will last for weeks. It is bacteria that actually kills fresh-cut flowers. It can be sprayed on houseplants with fungus or rust. A dollop in the milk jug keeps the milk fresh for a long time. There are lots more uses for CS in the body and around the house, any place bacteria live can benefit from CS. -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
