Amidol Teaspoon Formula

Has anyone actually used this formula? It's from the Unblinking Eye. It looks minimalistic.

Use full strength or 1:1. Often recommended for bromoil work

It may be even more minimal. From my experience
bromide is some times not needed. Depends upon
the paper. Amidol needs no activator; alkali. Dan

The Ultimate Minimal Developer

As an experiment I've used metol + activator
and no more for a print developer. The developer
turned black but the print came out fine.

Use quickly as a one-shot: amidol + water. No more.
My guess, it will last long enough to be used one-shot,
maybe longer. Who knows?

To test I'd suggest a very dilute minimal solution volume,
with extended development. That stuff does cost. Dan
