Tomorrow I get to do something fun: I get to lick the science!
My last bottle of DD-X developer expired (quite spectacularly, I had to get a hacksaw to open it and add it to the disposal container), but I've got ONE roll of film left to process.
Instant coffee
Ascorbic acid powder (vitamin C)
Washing soda (sodium carbonate)
Two of those, are lickable. That's the delta recipe for #caffenol, although I'm using it for HP5+ not Delta, it's still effective. I could've gone with Caffenol-C-H instead but that needs potassium bromide which can't be delivered as quickly and I'm not a patient person (hah!)
I love all of the random things that can happen when you develop film. While there are many avenues to 'screw up', I would argue that after doing this for 6 months I actually enjoy the imperfections and surprises. For digital perfection, I've got my DSLR.
But C-41 processing and then hanging negs in a closet with dust accidentally -> made a photo that looks like stars.
@skinnylatte I was fascinated that you can do it with coffee too! Went down the #Caffenol rabbit hole for a while, looking forward to seeing your results!
Jos jotain toivoisin tästä masto-elämästä niin jonkinmoinen keskustelu ois kiva. Vähän taas tuntuu siltä että siihen on joko ihan mahdoton päästä tai sitten postata mitään kiinnostavaa.
Joo mie käytän normaalisti D-76 ja vien kehitteetkin varmuuden vuoksi kiltisti ongelmajätteeseen, vaikka ei tuokaan kai mitään kovaa myrkkyä pitäisi olla.
Kuvasin kyllä just yhden rullan mustavalkoa jonka ajattelin kehittää kahvilla kokeeksi 😎 sen voinee kaataa ihan viemäriin.
