this is a brand new machine. and My first batch. Does anyone know about the black tarnish?<<<<
I did clean the jar with dish soap but I really rinsed in well. I flushed it because I was concerned about using soap. could this be a factor?

Heavy deposits on the electrodes can defeat conductivity sensing auto off circuits by semi-insulating the electrodes. At some point, they just get heavier and heavier and make a mess.
Don't worry about light. If you haven't used salt or baking soda, you can run a generator in direct sun and store CS on a sunny windowsill.
Silver in 'only' distilled water is not photo-reactive.
If you find that it is, there was something else in the water.

Thanks it's been 26 hours and the light is still on. Should I through it out? I just took a peak and the silver rods are tarnished with black (like silver tarnish) and when I shook them it feel of and was making it's way to the bottom. Also there are two tarnish lines run down the jar. From the bottom of the rod to the bottom.<<<<
any thoughts, please

I have a colloid master as well. My usual setting is 6 to 6.5. The PPM tester is anywhere between 14 to 20. Which I understand correctly from the list is doubled to come up with the correct the PPM. It should be clear/slightly yellow at the end of the brewing cycle. It can take a bit of time. I do not let mine sit for 36 hours before I use it. I also do not filter it. Not sure if this causes any problems but I haven't turned gray yet

Well I started my first batch yesterday at 4 PM. It's now 7 AM and it's not done. I have a colloid master and when I did the test for water purity it was just fine (Arrowhead distilled) So I'm not sure what to do now. I'm concerned. I did want a higher PPM so it's set on 6. I'm concerned about the keep in the dark thing." Why would that make a difference. Can I lift the box and look at it or would that ruin the batch and what about taking the box off to remove the silver and let set for 36 hours. It's seems more difficult that I thought it would be because of the darkness thing. I seen a post here about fuzz does' that stop the process and what about lifting the box to see if I have fuzz.
thanks for any input
