Ok there it is folks...


700 ml beaker.

Distilled water.

Two silver rods in 12 gauge 99.9999% purity. (Atlas Nova)

Power supply @ 19 volts for 1.5 hours.

Just had my first buzz of the elixir and no blue man symptoms ;) :thumb:

If you know what the current was you can use the faraday calculator to see how much(PPM) mg of silver is in you batch.
It was roughly 100Ma but the meter wasn't set up properly...

24 hrs since cooking it the water hasn't turned yellow either. Maybe a low ppm batch?

I need a ppm meter I think.

100mA? How much distilled water did you use? With the current and volume of water and time, I can use the equation to give you an apprx amount of silver in solution.
About 10 oz of water roughly 300 ml

With the faraday calculations it shows that 300ml distilled water
90 minutes time
0.100mA
Your PPM = 2.01
The max I goto is 20PPM, Brew time 895 minutes - 14 Hours 55 minutes or boost up your current just don't go above 1mAmp per square inch, this helps to avoid pulling to much silver off your wire which gives off larger bits.

I check my PPM with a HM Digital Com-100.

I got distracted while making CS one night and went way over planned time while cooking it. My ppm when I stopped cooking it was about 24.6 ppm. The color was dark amber by the next day. It has now stabilized at 10.3 ppm.

I deliberately cooked another batch to 16 ppm trying to get a stable 10 ppm CS with smaller particle size. It stabilized at 10.8 ppm and a light yellow color.

I deliberately cooked my latest batch to 13 ppm and it stabilized at 9.8 ppm and it's almost colorless. It has strong Tyndall effect and a few sparkles just like the other batches.

Seems that the higher you cook it, the larger the percentage of collapse. You also finish with much larger particles when you push it high. The color is proof of that.

When I "cook it" for a stable 8-10 ppm, I cook to 13-16 ppm and that's been pretty reliable for a stable 8-10 ppm and a colorless or light yellow color.

The higher cook time warms the water and reduces some of the IS to CS. Heat reduction is a method I use to get the colloidal silver from ionic silver. I use IS externally and CS internally(like in the ultrasonic nebulizer). The slower you brew the better the ionic turns out (you dont have to take 24 hours though). The HM-com 100 wont give a reading on the CS in your solution, it will only give the ionic reading. When I reduce the IS to CS(about 95%) it is an amber/yellow color. This gives you an idea of the size by Surface plasmon resonance and other methods that give color by size, area of particule.

Oh I see. Well I know that silver is anti-microbial "I think" I know copper is. So is this reactive medicine or proactive medicine….or are we not using it for a medicinal use? I read that and understood it has theorized medical benefits.
