Frequency can tweek the process from favoring oxide production to
favoring hydroxide production.

Friends,
From what I understand, the object of polarity switching in the process
of brewing AIS is to eliminate the normal silver oxide accumulation in
the cathode and the harder coat of silver oxide in the cathode, which
maintains both electrodes clean.
A determinate ammount of silver oxide will be produced in batch "A"
without polarity switching, which at the end of the process will have
produced a noticeable moderate dark grey "beard" on the cathode.
If we have an identical batch "B" (identical water quality and ammount,
temperature, process time, current flow, container, electrodes, etc.) and
have polarity switching during the process, I assume aproximately the same
ammount of silver oxide will be produced, but instead of accumulating it
is, in every switching of the polarity, solving into the water, aside from
the ions and colloidal particles being produced.
If, after batch "A" is finished, the current is stopped and the electrodes
left in the produced EIS, after a few seconds the cathode "beard" starts
turning into a "cascade" mostly dissolving in the produced batch, and a
smaller part sedimenting at the bottom of the glass jar.
If this is the case, the only basic difference between "A" and "B" would
be cleaner electrodes in "B". Both will have a determined ammount of
silver oxide incorporated, instead of being cleaned off at intervals
during the process.
Regards
Carlos
