Hey all,
I've got my Ilford Microphen developer, which is in powder form and a form I've not had any experience of. This will apparently make 1 litre of developer. I'm not developing film that regularly (at the moment) so I've got a few questions about storing the developer.
Should I:
a. Mix a litre of developer and then store it
or
b. Mix what I need from the powder and keep the rest separate?
If I'm mixing the entire lot for my 1 litre of developer, can I store it in something like an empty 1L orange squash bottle or should I get something else? And how long can I store it for before it goes off?
Cheers!
Welly
