Bubbles?
« on: February 10, 2016, 12:46:10 AM »
Bear with the newbie.  I'd made several just plain batches of colloidal silver but only today learned about reducing and capping.  I have a small batch to which I added the corn syrup, gelatin, and a little washing soda.  The color is beautiful and the liquid is very clear...but there are tiny air bubbles inside this batch, which either cling to the sides of the jar or go to the top of the colloid.  That didn't happen before so I'm curious if this is normal or if I did anything wrong.

Yeah the gelatin traps hydrogen bubbles.  Evetually they go away and they dont hurt anything..
There is the unknown and the unknowable.  It's a wise man who knows the difference.

Thanks!  I'm relieved that's all it is!   :)
