Tri-x 400TX pushed to 1600 in xtol (1+1) times

[Flyfisher Tom]

If you've pushed Tri-X 400TX to 1600 in xtol (1+1), could you provide me with your preferred time/temp?

Not looking for official Kodak published times, already know them. Looking for something you've tested personally and been satisfied with.

Thanks so much for your insights.

regards

Sorry, forgot to clarify, I'm talking about the new 400TX formulation, not the original Tri-X formulation.

thanks

I did a search over at the "other" site (you know which one I mean), and there was a bunch of info. Most of the results indicated 1+2 rather than 1+1, but you can see for yourself.

Sorry that I don't have any personal experience to chip in with. Hopefully someone else can help out...

P.S. A searching tip for everyone! If you're looking for info in the archives of a site, don't use the site's Search feature. I find that it often ignores all but the newest content, or is not sufficiently powerful enough. You can use Google (and maybe other search engines) with the "site:" keyword to find what you're looking for. For example:

site:www.rangefinderforum.com tri-x xtol 1600

Cheers!

For 400TX @ EI 1600 - I use The Massive Dev Chart and add 15% to the time. It works well with my Durst condenser enlarger. This is with a 1 minute pre-soak and single inversions of the tank at 1 minute intervals. All at 68 degrees fahrenheit.
