Will I get finer grain if I have more metol and less hydroquinon in D-76?

I've made my own developer a couple of times, mostly D-25. I get very fine grain, but very soft results.

What if I go with the D-76 recipie and have more metol at expence of hydroquinon? 2 grams more metol and 2 grams less hydroquinon for one liter of developer.

Will that give me finer grain and still normal contrast?

Thanks for any input.
