Dee Apparently the tissue is your problem, as the making of paper products uses many unknown (to me) chemicals that could leave some residual contamination. Also a grey color on an electrode is a plus as it shows a roughness of the electrode which promotes better removal of the silver by having more surface area. I would rather have the silver in the brew than on a tissue. Dave
