Re: [Frameworks] eco-friendly developing with coffee

During my Hand-Processing Intensive classes ["Subversive Cinema"]
which I offered at the San Francisco Art Institute from 2006 to
2009, the remarkable students and I devised this successful
formula for developing Tri-x with instant coffee:

Mix 8 ounces of water with 4 teaspoons of instant coffee
Add 2 teaspoons of washing soda ( often sold as a laundry product)
This activates the developing agent in the coffee. Rainbow Grocery in
SF sells washing soda in bulk.
Stir and develop film for 25 minutes at 68 degrees F.

I recall that Tomonari Nishikawa produced his "Shake and Bake" film
using coffee as a developer when he was in the graduate Film Program
at SFAI.
