i would recommend using it for film and buying something else to drink ...
i drink a little bit of the coffee each time i make a batch
it is typical of indonesian coffee a floral bouquet, no acid and heavy body - really "earthy" ...

Actually at one time I was traveling to PNG fairly regular and picking up dried arabica beans. They were very inexpensive and I found the coffee to be very good. You have to understand, some of us were actually raised on REAL, hard-boiled, cowboy coffee, not that wussy stuff they sell at Starbucks and such!
Starbucks is actually pretty strong compared to most other places... but yes I've drank coffee the cowboy method.. throw grinds in a cup, throw hot water in a cup, drink ... grinds and all ... puts hair on your chest!
Close, but not quite. You put water and a handful of coffee grounds in a small, tin pot. Put that on the fire and start it cooking. Now you start your bacon and eggs, but put the eggshells to the side. Once the bacon and eggs are finished the coffee pot should be boiling good. Take it off the fire, throw the eggshells in to settle the grounds and take a touch of the bitter off, then pour into your tin cup.
I drank my coffee this way at home for years. The tin cup was reserved for camping trips but the coffee was made the same whether it was on the kitchen range or over a campfire. I think its also know as hobo brew. Puts coffee from a french press to shame.
I drink coffee while developing film in either D76 1:1, or ID11 1:1. I sip scotch while developing prints in Ilford Paper Developer. Thankfully, no one has found that single malt will develop anything other than a nice, gentle buzz. ;-))
hey pioneer
my grandmother used to tell me that is how she made her coffee for the church ladies
with eggshells to clear the grounds but she used an urn, not a tin cup
if you ever have any cardamom drop it in your cup instead of eggshells, it works great for taking the bitter off too,
and it won't raise your cholesterol
stone, starby's only TASTES strong because the beans have released oils, it really
has very little caffeine because roasting kills it.
your stand brew sounds pretty tasty though

1: reversal (dektol mostly)
2: xtol
3: c-41 (powder kits)
I use reversal for anything I want to keep, or for more seriousious work. XTol for everything else, but I am actively looking for a replacement. I just can't come close to using it up before it dies on me. I probably will go Thornton 2 bath or some pyro I can make from scratch, when I need it.
how many developers do you use, or have you settled on one?
if you use a handful, are they for specific films or reasons ?
