It looked like the coffee pot contained copper carbonet, and possibly the other stuff stirring about was copper 2 oxide, which is anhydrous, and needs acids to break down into pure form, or alkline solution to use electrode to draw copper out of solution and away from other molecular structures, you wouldn't want to keep reforming the oxides.
Stick a piece of iron in it. The copper changes places with the iron. I use an old brake rotor to get the copper out of 8 gallons of copper sulfate electrolyte at a time. I have other uses for the iron sulfate later on.
Thanks vibe does the iron put on a good show I new iron would work but I knew aluminum puts on a good show for the videos I have already processed all my copper sulphate with aluminum but I will keep it in mind for the future. Question though what do you use the iron sulfate for?
@Cloudranger239 Iron sulfate is commonly known as Copperas, and is used to drop gold from solution during the refining process. Especially from the first "dirty" drop.. I have used the copper sulfate electrolysis parting process for dissolving the base metals from underneath the gold plating in hobby gold recovery from scrap electronics connector pins. As for putting on a good show? The iron will look to grow copper on the surface, much like it grows on the cathode of the parting cell.
Oh and get a fan, and open a window. Those reactions produce a lot of CO2, and Corbon Monoxide, you don't want to breath either for any length of time. Use a Graphite, or ceramic stir stick, wood absorbs liquid, and will pollute your solution, putting carbon particulate in the solution. I'd also wear gloves when handling these solutions, and a face shield wouldn't hurt either. Safety brother.
