Hi Frank, My protocol for making clear CS with a weak T.E. (that is the best) is to use #14 Ag electrodes spaced 1/2" with 3-1/2" of wet length, and 26 vDC. I measure the current on every run. If you don't measure current you have no idea as to what you are making. In about two hours my currents run 4 to 5 ma. and the ppm as measured with a spectrophotometer is 11 to 12 ppm. To consistently make clear CS you MUST add constant stirring. I use a RAdio shack 1-1/2V dc motor with a 2" length of plastic insulation for a #14 copper house wire. I add about 3 ohms in series with the motor to slow it down. Otherwise it stirs up a storm.
This protocol is for 14 oz of DW. in a 16 oz clear plastic SOLO cup ( a grocery store item). It will even make clear CS using the demineralized drinking water. The only problem with it is the very bright T.E. If you need more help then post me direct. Yellow CS generally says that you are brewing for too long of a time.
