Strange that no one has mentioned caffenol as a developer. Use the formula for slow films on a high speed film e.g. 400 or greater. The Arista/Fomapan films work for this.



Edit note: Curse you autocorrect!

I've used caffenol for developing expired Kodachrome, but not much else. might be worth trying down the line
