Dill pickle jars are fat and short..pretty good for thermal stirring
even at 64 fl oz.
Wash em real good in very hot water.

Dear Sam,
Thanks, that does help. Thermal stirring is the only
game in this house at the moment. I kinda like to do
things myself, and this is better than nothing. Maybe
it will work better with the electrodes spaced a
little farther apart. It is nice to get the info about
how many square inches
Thanks, Dan,
That is why I am using a potentiometer instead of a
diode, so I can play with the current. I am trying to
keep my messing around to just 1 or 2 variables at a
time, mostly one, so I can see what happens when I
change it. I started out using 4 9V batteries, with no
current limiter,
Thanks for the reply. I was making a quart, and the
current varied a little bit between .2 and .3, it
seems to me the average was .23mA- I can't find my
production notes, just my calc, and that is what I
wrote in the formula. The electrodes are fine silver
wire 10 gauge, 5 1/4 inches submerged,
Hi Kathryn
The first batch was OK but you didn't run it long enough. I would estimate
24-30 hours using .23 mA per quart with electrode spacing at 2 inches. Using
1 mA would take 6-8 hours (estimated)
Thermal stirring doesn't work well with quart batches unless its a short fat
jar, the stirring
If you have current limiting, then the current cannot go above this set value.
If you limit the current to a very small amount, it will take longer to get a particular
concentration (ppm) of CS for a particular size container, compared to a batch made with a higher
current limit setting.

Hi Kathryn.
I dont know if this got posted to the list or not so I will repost.
Need more info. What size batch are we taking about? What was the current
.2-,3 or ,275 mA? What are you using for Electrodes and what size. Whats the
spacing on the electrodes.
At .275 mA I would run the batch 24
I am looking for some input on this new batch I did. I
changed 2 of the parameters, adding a light bulb under
the jar as a thermal stirrer, and I lowered the
current to .2-.3 mA.
So I have a 27V battery (3 nines) hooked up in series
with a potentiometer and a multimeter, with the jar
now sitting

At .275 mA I would run the batch 24 hours per quart with electrode spacing
of 1.5 inch's using a total of
9 matches
