I've been considering doing my own E6 processing for some time, for all the reasons mentioned in this thread. I did my own E6 for many years, using several different chemistries, and rudimentary equipment, including several thermometers. I'm a retired chemist, so I could do with the experimental practice. Until these last two messages partly answered it for me, I was going to ask just *how* critical the time & temperature were. My other questions for those who've done home C41 are... (1) What is the shelf life of opened stock solutions? (For E6 developers, it wasn't good, even with careful displacement of air from the top of the bottles.) (2) How bad are the economics? 10-15 years ago it was costing me more to do my own, but the results were better. All info welcome.
