With no stirring, you get a conductive ion buildup in a localized area directly between the electrodes ["ion track"] and you'll start pulling higher current faster in very pure water.

With stirring, you are building ion conductivity over the entire container from the start, so getting "to" 1 mA in a quart can take several hours if the water is quite good. I've seen a pint take as long as 6 hours just to "get started" [ EXTREMELY pure water ]

The impatient using a 'watch and wait' setup can decrease process time considerably by delaying turning the stirrer on. With a completely automatic system, time is something to do something else with. It watches itself.

Hi..I am using air to stir my CS and am using the TDS-3 TDS/TEMP meter to measure the PPM. It seem that the slower the air flow into the water is the quicker the PPM goes up. I don't really know why it wouldn't be setup right? I have used others' diagrams and pictures but on this batch I was using the Radio Shack's 30 vdc 1000mA transformer and have a starting voltage of about 27volts and it drops slowly as the PPM increases. I am getting some fuzz on the negitive electrode but was told that was normal. If I do 16 ounces it only takes a couple of hours. My generators can be seen at <http://www.keithmj.com/colloidalsilvergenerators/index.html>http://www.keithmj.com/colloidalsilvergenerators/index.html How about telling how the generator should be made and what parts to use...Cheers..Keithmj

Subject: Re: CS-Best Milliamps

The Faraday calculator shows that 1.4 ma in 1000 ml water
for 900 minutes should result in a brew of 84.52 ppm, that
is if there were no losses and all the silver went into the
water.

You must either have a problem with your setup and it is not
working properly, or you must have a tremendous buildup of
silver gunk on your electrodes.

Try adding some stirring.

What are you measuring the ppm with?

Hi All..Still playing around. I was wondering what the
proper milliamps would be to make the Colloidal Silver. I am
using the 30vdc power supply with a current limiting diode
and my milliamps are at 1.4 mA and have been brewing a
32ounce batch and after about 15 hours it is only up to 7PPM
so I bypassed the current limiting diode and put in a 33kohm
resistor and it took it up to 2.4 milliamps. I can get
current limiting diodes but was wondering what would be the
best setting?  If I don't use any thing to limit the
milliamps the power supply will put out 16 milliamps which I
think is to high to use..Any ideas on this..Thanks..Keithmj
