The DARKROOM COOKBOOK, Third Edition

Formulas 319
Development time is 8–10 minutes at 68F/20C. The contrast of the positive cannot be appreciably
changed by varying the development time. However, varying the amount of hydroquinone
can be used to adjust the contrast.
FORMULA #201
Kodak D-67R
Replenisher for D-67
Distilled water at 125F/52C, 500.0 ml
Metol, 2.0 g
Sodium sulfi te, anhydrous, 90.0 g
Hydroquinone, 8.0 g
Sodium carbonate, monohydrate, 52.5 g
*Sodium thiocyanate, 51%, 7.5 ml
Water to make 1.0 liter
* 2.5 ml of potassium thiocyanate can be substituted. Reduce the carbonate to 37.5 grams.
The volume of the fi rst developer needs to be kept constant by adding Kodak D-67R.
Replenish the fi rst developer with 18.5 ml per 80 2 inches. If only one roll of fi lm is developed
it is possible that less than 18.5 ml will be missing from the total volume. If this is the
case then remove as much as necessary to reduce the volume by 18.5 ml and then add the
replenisher.
