"When I added the H2O2 it turned the cs brown."
I have had both experiences of H2O2 making a batch of
brown CS turn crystal clear, and H2O2 making a batch
of yellow CS turn brown. I have no idea why those
different reactions. If I could be sure of how it
would work, I would use H2O2 to not only make clear
CS, but have added H2O2 in it, which would increase
its effectiveness.
Anyone know why the different reactions?
By the way, I dilute and drink the CS that has turned
brown from H2O2. (It's just CS with H2O2 in it.)
Remember, it's almost difficult to make a toxic or
dangerous CS, no matter what the color, if you are
only using Fine silver and DW.
I can brew 10 gallons for an hour during the summer
(when the room is warm) and get crystal clear CS. If I
brew it for 1-1/2 hours, it will be gold. That doesn't
mean that it's bad or toxic CS, it simply means the
particles are big enough to refract light, but still
much, much smaller than the ground-up silver the
European Royalty used to ingest. I have no hesitation
to drinking yellow or gold CS (I've drunk many gallons
of it), and have no reason to think it is in any way
dangerous. I make a point of brewing clear CS because
I don't feel that gold CS is more effective than clear
CS, but gold CS does mean my silver wires are
dissolving faster.
If you are using DW and Fine silver and you get a
colored or cloudy batch, don't fret, don't throw it
out, drink it, use it, it's fine. If you want, dilute
it before ingesting it (I personally don't bother),
but don't fear it.
It's not the occasional colored/cloudy/muddy batch
that can hurt you, it's the consistent, regular
ingestion of large amounts of brown or blackish CS
over a significant period of time that MAY be a
concern. The closest thing to an example of this is
Stan Jones, who didn't even use DW. If it took him two
years, drinking 8 oz/day of coffee-colored,
chlorinated tap water CS, to get a faint blue around
his eyes, how safe is yellow CS made with DW? Safe
enough that I wouldn't even give it a second thought.
The scientists have found that it is actually HARD to
create argyria, that it takes HUGE amounts of silver
compounds to eventually produce it. And what they have
done is not in the same dimension with what we are
doing.
Let me put it more succinctly:
If you were to brew CS using only DW and Fine silver
wire, and you brewed it however long it took to get
coffee-colored CS, it would still not be what Stan
Jones drank, and I am very dubious that what happened
to Stan would happen to you. Nevertheless, to stay on
the safe side, here is the rule - follow this rule,
and you won't go wrong:
DON'T REGULARLY DRINK LARGE AMOUNTS OF COFFEE-COLORED
CS.
Anything else I consider to be safe, IMHO.
