Rolls 1185 and 1187: FP4+ @ EI 125 // Caffenol CL semi-stand
- 1187: Idaho and Wyoming. (16 to 17 Aug 2020. Ilford FP4+ @ 125.)
- 1185: Denver BLM murals; cats in Parker; Virginia Dale; Wyoming rest stop; Boise (30 July to 15 Aug 2020. Ilford FP4+ @ 125.)
Two rolls of Ilford FP4+ film, both shot at box speed, on 35mm rolls in the 120 tank.
Mixed 500mL Caffenol C-L: 8g washing soda, 5g ascorbic acid powder, 8g iodized table salt, 20g Kroger instant coffee. Pre-wet film ~2 hours at room temperature. Poured out water, then poured in developer; agitated 20x over 30 seconds, then 10x over 15 seconds every fifteen minutes afterwards, to a total developing time of 60 minutes. Alternated orientation at each agitation to avoid uneven development.
After 60 minutes, disposed of developer, rinsed in 68 degree water, filling and emptying the tank until the water rinsed completely clear, then four more times. Fixed in Ilford Rapid Fixer 1+4 for 6 minutes (that’s now 7 rolls from this batch of fixer), turning 10x over 15 seconds at the top of every minute. Recaptured fixer and rinsed for ten minutes, then emptied tank, added a few drops of Photo-Flo, filled tank again and agitated 20x, and hung negatives vertically to dry.
