    Less than two years ago 777 was available. Now it's gone. Coulda shoulda woulda bought a bunch. Probably not. The stuff seems to have worked best in large tanks and used on a daily babsis.
    Xtol & Rodinal for me. With a dash of Pyrocat-HD.

    Yes, what about it? Roger did the right thing, namely, posting to an existing relevant thread. That's what makes a useful archive. This is not a chat room.

    The article on 777 at Unblinking Eye aroused my interest in superfine grain replenished developers, and I tested several published formulas, but never bought 777. In the end I formulated my own SFG developer, and I've been very happy with it. I don't know how it would compare to 777.

    Actually, is it true? 777 gone?

    evan, any chance to see the sparkle?

    You might try mixing something from The Frugal Photographer. The Germain formula "has interesting properties." Apparently there is nothing like Harvey's 777, but the stuff really isn't for occasional use. It is stable in big tanks, but not in a small Patterson tank, and certaintly unstable for Jobo processing.

    Rodger and Sal,

    I wasn't putting anyone down for posting on a two year old thread.

    Read Wayne's response (post #11) and you will realize why I mentioned it.

    Blue Grass is still in business, but they told me today that they are not making 777 anymore. They might make it again in the future if there is demand. They told me to check back in a few months. I encourage everyone to call them at 502-425-6442 and put your two cents in. Maybe they will start it up again.
