Hello,

In order to compensate for the increased graininess due to dilution (1:1) when using D-76 and thus a lowering of the sodium sulfite, would it be appropriate to add sodium sulfite if one is using D-76 at 1:1 dilution?

If so, then in what quantities?

regards,
Bogdan



Make up a 9% solution of sodium sulfite (90 grams in water to make up 1 liter) and use that to dilute the D76. You will have to experiment to get the correct development time.

This has been done before. Try a google search of "sulfite Rodinal" no quotes. Rodinal dissolvedin sulfite tames the inherent graininess of Rodinal.

GMTA.  :-)
