Think of it this way, Wayne.
The simplest cs process has been refined over the years to occur when
the current is limited to 1 ma or so, in distilled water, for however
long you want depending on strength desired.
~10 ppm has become a benchmark, so we'll talk about that.
One of the easiest ways to limit current is the current limiting
diode, so one of those rated at or near 1ma is ideal.
Voltage becomes pretty near irrelevant as long as you have enough to
raise the circuit current eventually to 1 ma.
The excess is dropped across the diode.
The beauty of the diode is that the end time can be prolonged for a
stronger brew. You don't run into the runaway current rise as the
solution conductivity increases. (real world must have a limit)
Ohms law and maxwells equations still apply, but it doesn't hurt the
head as much.
And it beats watching a meter and adjusting a pot for an hour or so.

You've got to know the rules before you break them--otherwise it's no
fun
