Barb, banging a hard leather bound book is suggested for one resounding bang when making up an LM. Funny that you mention this because it makes me realize that I always do that when using the method suggested for the LM (or even another potency but with alcohol)using Everclear but never do it when making a water potency that does not have alcohol! When I make a water potency not only do I not give that one big bang (that one bang doesn't count as a succussion) but I don't succuss at all for the first dose. Start to succuss with the second dose. I hadn't realized that I used two different approaches depending on the use of alcohol. Is this terribly incorrect?
