I ran into this page a couple of days ago where there are several recipes to make your own lith developer. As the developer is not all that cheap and the optimal time window in which you can work is rather limited (not taking into account the option of extending this period by using additives) this might be an interesting thing to do. Now that I’m used mixing my own stuff this is definitely next on my list for home-brewing š
This is the site I’m referring to:

This site contains a lot of interesting information so worthwhile looking around anyway.
Below the jpg version of the page:
For now I have bought another package of the Rollei Vintage developer so I can start working again tomorrow. I will also try the Easylith and SE5 kit by Moersch. But home-made will certainly be part of the collection too. You can keep the home made solution for at least half a year so that’s perfect!
Have a good evening!
Reblogged this on filmcamera999 and commented:
sheesh! i’d be careful before touching these liquids…can be corrosive…!
Gloves gloves gloves, eye protection etc. I’m used to mixing my own stuff nowadays. Protection and common sense get you a long way š
yeah…agreed! i left that comment as a warning to peeps who wouldnt know of the dangers! i dabble in lith from time to time, too….!
True to that! People can be very not-cautious! š
