Rolls 1092 and 1090: Tri-X @ EI 400 // Caffenol CL semi-stand
- 1092: Rocky Mountain National Park. Denver. Road to Limon.
- 1090: Denver downtown. Snowy Parker.
Both are Tri-X 400 at box speed, on 35mm rolls in the 120 tank.
500mL Caffenol C-L: 8g washing soda, 5g ascorbic acid powder, 4g iodized table salt, 20g Folgers instant coffee, in that order, dissolving each completely before adding the next. Prewet in tap water at ~68 degrees for ~15 minutes, then poured out water and poured in developer. Continuous gentle agitation for first minute, then let sit for a total of 70 minutes. Inverted gently six times with 35 minutes remaining, then let sit, leaving upside-down. Rinsed clear, then rinsed two more minutes, then fixed in Ilford Rapid Fixer 1+4 (that’s now 22 rolls, 12 after replenishment), 7 minutes, agitate 10x at beginning, then 5x over 10 seconds at top of each minute. Rinsed with a trickle of water at 68 degrees for ten minutes, completely emptying the canister several times. Hung to dry.
Rather grainy. Should probably be using more iodized salt here.
