hi Barb what I found with using liquids to clean the utensils and mainly the jar was that it brought the ppm up a little too high for me any way ...to proceed in making a batch...my distilled water is usually around 00.1 which I feel comfortable with ...you could try vinegar and then measure the purity of the distilled to see how it measures up ...the alcohol has always worked ... take care Norm ----- Original Message ----- From: B Magnatta To: silver-list@eskimo.com Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2008 10:31 AM Subject: Re: CS>CS colour
Wouldn't plain ol vinegar be good to clear the bottles or soap residue or anything else?
