Cloudy replenished XTOL

[herb]

I have been happily using xtol stock for about two months, replenishing so that my 1 gallon jug is full to the top, and I notice it is developing a kind of grayish color. It still works just fine, and my dedicated developer funnel has a fine screen in it, I use presoak when developing, so is this normal??

Yes, the color can also vary when film types are changed.

This is normal. Replenished XTOL is wonderful—I am going to process 12 rolls of 120 TMY-2 in my grey XTOL this morning.

All replenished developers get cloudy, its important to remove the sediment evry so often.
