its been a long while

its been a long while but i think next week i will make a small batch of salted emulsion.
i plan on using mr patten's recipe, but adding in / spiking it with a little potassium bromide.
any suggestions for salt to bromide ratio i should use ?
i'm using 3g/nacl to 5.6g of AG, the total volume will be about 100cc at first
as i get more confident i will make larger volumes, but its been about 30 years since i did this
and i am more than a little rusty..

thanks for your suggestions !

well

to make a long story short, i used 3g of salt, and equal amounts of bromide and silver.
noodling was a mess and i just did test exposures today ... not sure what speed it ended up
its slow though, really slow.

I think it already looks awesome. I can't wait to see what comes from this!

thanks ned !
i'm getting to the bottom of the beaker, and it has been a lot of fun playing with something i made from scratch. while it works in a camera really well
i have almost decided to make this a printing on emulsoin and a photogram emulsion because it is so slow. i had wanted to make portriats with it,
but i can't really make someone sit for 30-40 seconds ...
