Like D-76, but with somewhat more grain and slightly higher accutance.
Tri-X in Rodinal 1:25 is my standard combo. ~6 minutes at 20C.

How does Tri-x look when developed in Rodinal?

Yes, I was going to mention Rodinal, but the question was about powder
developers.
I recently found an original, sealed glass bottle of Rodinal that I
purchased in 1969. It'll be interesting to see how well it works
Just for the record, I'd not trust any liquid developer (other than
Rodinal) to have a long shelf life after it's been opened.

Except for Rodinal. Even oxidized, it's good for decades, just turns
black.
Lovely stuff.

off.
If you're going to mix your own, the shelf life of the individual
chemicals
is much longer than ready made.

I'm thinking purely B&W use on the 6x7.
So the powdered versions keep pretty much forever?
