2-bath Devlopers (1 Viewer)

Does any one else here use ' 2 Bath Developer Formulae' ? I have made up some and sometimes get very grainy results - maybe they are not good at giving finer grain ?

Have you tried lowering the temperature?

No--- use it around 20oC

Lower temp results in less grain. At least that is what i learned 45 years ago.

Use a higher dilution and longer developing time maybe? I used 2 bath developers for several years. but I haven't developed film my own film in years.
