25 minutes at 75F gave me the best results. Also, use at least 100mL of Xtol. I used it with 120 film, and it was 133mL Xtol to 266mL water.

Try these...

12'/75F EI 1250 (normal contrast and shadow density, looks like really grainy Tri-X).

17'/75F EI 2000

20'/75F EI 3200

Be sure to use at least 100ml Xtol stock per roll.
