I have purchased a Jobo 3005 which develops 5 sheets of 8x10. This is the manual roller version. I believe the tank only needs 270 ml of chemistry, but I think that will exceed the capacity of the developer. I am planning to process Ilford Delta 100. I want to do one shot. I prefer not to store any stock solution since it might not be used for a while. So a priority is buying either a powder developer in envelopes to make only 1 liter or a liquid concentrate developer that will store well for a long time undiluted. I am interested in staying basic for now. Just normal development. And I am going to start with five negatives of a blank sky to test this out and check for any problems.
I did some searching on D76 and opinions seemed to be that each sheet of 8x10 needed 100 ml straight or 200 ml 1:1. Question one, does that sound correct? Question 2, is there a better basic general purpose developer for me to start with? Thanks in advance.
