RE: alternative darkroom chemistry

Water alone can also be used as stop bath, just keep it in there for twice
as long, and I like to agitate a little more.(I hate the smell of indicator
stop bath!)

Adding some of the White stuff to water will give you a stop bath.....
(Don't use the Grape vinegar, though it might make an interesting toner...)

Hi everyone,

While we're still talking about darkroom chemistry...
just wondering if anyone has tried using vinegar as a
stop bath in the darkroom. Obviously there would be
no colour change when the pH gets too high, but I
don't process large volumes of prints at any given
time so I can't see this being a problem.

I'm partly asking this is because I'm interrested in
alternative photography, but mostly because I want to
have a low-budget darkroom. If anyone knows of any
websites or has any hot tips on how to cut costs
without compromising quality, your assistance would be
appreciated.

-Jeremy
