1) Purchase a bottle of deionised water. I go to the local motor shop where they sell it as battery water.
2) Attach two silver wires to the opening at the top of the bottle.
3) Pour 50ml of pre-made colloidal silver between the silver wires as ‘starter’ (to facilitate the electrolysis).
4) Switch the colloidal silver generator on.
5) Cover the bottle in a cloth to keep out any ambient light (not essential).
6) Leave the generator running until the PPM tester reads 10ppm or more (always switch off the power before checking PPM)*.
Temperature and how much electrolyte is in the water determine how long the generator will need to left switched on. More heat = quicker time. More electrolyte = quicker time. I’m in the UK now and it’s cold in the kitchen, so it takes around 8 hours to make up a 5 litre batch. That’s not a problem because it’s a plug-in kit, if I was relying on batteries I’d either heat the water, add more electrolyte (probably a few grains of table salt added to a tablespoon of water) or use re-chargeable batteries. Adding the salt makes the process far quicker but you end up with silver chloride not colloidal silver. Silver chloride is also amazing and has numerous health benefits (I drank it for over 10 years). But…I’m into making ‘true’ colloidal silver now (could be just a phase I’m going through), so I just put the generator on in the morning and come back home in the evening to check the PPM. Usually it’s around 10ppm or more by then. If the colloidal silver is exposed to light, it will turn a golden/yellow colour as the PPM rises above 5 or 6. If not, it will remain fairly clear. Either way, you’ve made true colloidal silver.
In another post I mentioned ‘pickling’ the jar before making the colloidal silver. This is because some types of glass jar don’t work for making colloidal silver until they are ‘pickled’ first. Using the plastic bottle that de-ionised water comes in is very practical and works fine without ‘pickling’. I would however suggest pouring the final liquid into glass jars as plastic containers tend to reduce the PPM quicker over time than glass. Brown glass is the best. I go to my local Wetherspoons pub to get free glass bottles, which I then sterilise and refill with my colloidal silver. In return I told the manager that any staff can have a free bottle of colloidal silver if they should want it.
As ever, please don’t hesitate to contact me for more info/advice. I’m here to help.
