If you want liquid D-76, you might give Nacco Super 76 available from Freestylea try---its very economical, too.

Cheers!

At my local mom & pop photo store, they sell Lauder Formula 76 in gallon and liter sizes. It runs about $12 a gallon, worth it in my case.

If your Rodinal is a syrup, you better get something fresher. Were you thinking of HC110?

I'd be wary of pre mixing your developer, cooling it, and warming it up again. Can't name which ones, but I'm sure I've read some developers once diluted, need to be used in a certain timeframe.

I mix my developer after loading film into the tank. I use various temp water to dilute the developer concentrate to my working temp. Then, into the tank it goes...

Try Edwal FG7 or HC110 for similar results to D76 1:1.

Sprint's liquid concentrate developer is listed as comparable to D76 1:1.

FWIW, I use HC-110 and it has an amazing shelf life, as long as you keep the air out, which I do with glass marbles.

Clayton F76 Plus, available from Freestyle. It weaned me away from HC-110.

I'll elaborate on the comment of just one other poster. Sprint's liquid concentrate film developer is excellent, and produces results very similar to D-76 1:1. Very complete and helpful directions right on the container. Not too expensive either. Adorama, B&H, etc. all stock it. I also regularly use DD-X. I would have a hard time picking between them.
