Alpha B&W Film Developer - 6L

After testing this with a couple of rolls of HP5 at box speed, the negatives came out crisp with clean highlights and deep blacks that scanned beautifully. The 6L size lasted me through a solid weekend of developing without needing to remix, which was a real plus. Feels like a professional-grade con

Mixed a batch for the first time and the powder dissolved completely in about five minutes with no leftover grit, which made me trust the whole process immediately. My negatives came out with crisp, clean blacks and a nice neutral gray scale that scanned beautifully.

The 6L size means I can process a whole month of rolls in one go, which feels great for a home lab. Mixed it up this morning and the powder dissolved cleanly with no clumps, so the negs came out with solid, even contrast.
