Response to Ascorbic acid/Metol developer query

Call me stupid , but... I thought the 1:1:14 dilution was because the stock solution is diluted at 1+3 which makes the equivilent of D76. Then if you wanted D76 @ 1:1 you dilute the solution again i.e. twice as much water. Becuse the solution is made up of two parts then you halve the amount of developer solution again. Ta da - 1:1:14. The problem here is that I too have been getting thin negatives with this developer and blamed it on my old-ish Metol. So I dunno.
