Subject: [pure-silver] Rodinal

Hi,
I just mixed up a liter of Rodinal type developer from Photograper's
Formulary (Paraminophenol Fil Developer) which has been dropped from their
catalog.  The kit uses Potassium Hydroxide and requires some care in keeping
the temperature under 60 F when adding the water to dilute, it becomes hot.
Probably why it was dropped.
      The mixing went smooth but I miss picking a bottle of Rodinal
off the shelf.   Anchell's Film Developer Cookbook uses Sodium
Hydroxide instead, so I'll use that next time.
      I put it in two pint bottles.  Is there any advantage in refrigerating
one of them?  Rodinal keeps rather well, and I used distilled, boiled water.
