A lot of sales talk in that link.
Does it really yield twice the speed of DDX with very fine but sharp grain?
I would like to see a test to confirm it.

I don't know what the availability of Clayton's products is in Europe. There are all kinds of restrictions when it comes to shipping liquid chemistry. Here on the East Coast of the U.S. I can get liquid chemistry easily from Freestyle in California with ground shipping but I can't get it from B&H in NY that way. If you can get someone to ship the stuff, do it before the weather gets too cold. Years ago a seller in Germany shipped me some liquid chemistry in the winter. When it got here, it was frozen solid. If I could get an old formula, I would want the one for Edwal FG-7. There are many good formulas for making phenidone based developers. Clayton F76 is indeed very nice but it doesn't keep well. It is more suitable for people who use it up quickly. It is partly for this reason that I keep a nice supply of metol and sodium sulfite. I can make up D-23 any time I need to.
It is rather unexpected if Sigma Aldrich are selling NMP quoting the wrong pH, but it appears that it is OK to leave it out of any homebrew in view of the metaborate.

The sales text claims lower fog levels than DDX, resulting in half the exposure time when printing, not when talking the picture itself.A lot of sales talk in that link.

Yes. Also does DDX produce higher fog levels than F76 Plus? Perhaps someone who has tried both can answer.That's definitely the most ridiculous and absurd sales pitch for a developer I've read, by far. I guess it will lure some people though.
Ahhhh! The only man with the silver bullet. Oh, and a horse called Silver too.

I'm sure the Clayton F76/ 1027 developer is a fine product, but it's unavailable in the UK.
Just a thought. Instead of trying to make a highly concentrated developer, try the Ilford PQ fine grain developer instead.already gathered that it is identical to D76 but uses phenidone in place of metol; just need to know in what ratio. 1:10 is my first guess.
