Clayton F76+ in a Jobo

[StevieRose]

Hello--Does anyone have any experience to share regarding using Clayton F76+ in a Jobo? I really like the developer and am about to start developing my BW film in a Jobo. I know this developer is used by many pro labs and it is listed as working well for rotational development in Jobos. My questions are: 1. Do you pre-wet the film, 2. Which dilution is preferable for Jobo use and do you reduce the development time compared to manual agitation? Thanks!

To my eyes, Delta 100 developed with F76+ is a magical combination. I use this combination primarily with sheet film and develop in Expert Drums on a Jobo; 1:14 for 5 mins at 75F, speed 4 (Jobo CPP-2). I do use a presoak for 5 mins as recommended by Jobo.

I've used Clayton with a number of films in my Unicolor film drum and motor base, not the same as a Jobo, but I did not use a presoak, took 20% off the time.
