[chris77]

hello apug.

its time to order more paper and chemicals.
i am not yet mixing my own, so i would like to ask which developers you personally like with fomabrom 111 fb glossy.
atm i have rollei rpn neutral developer (hydroquinon) and am open to try something new, cold and warm..

It's a warm-tone paper why not use Ilford Warmtone developer or Neutol WAA. I use Ilford ID-78 which I mix from scratch.

Otherwise your Rollei dev will be fine.

and i thought fomatone is foma's warmtone paper, while fomabrom is rather neutral.
i guess i will have to try out.

The name would seem to indicate it's a Bromide paper, however I did double-check and here's what Foma say it's actually a neutral to medium warm-tone chloro-bromide paper. so choice of developer is key to controlling warmth.
