Cold darkroom
The garage darkroom is at 6 °C in January. Developer at 20 °C lasts about three minutes in a cold tank, so now I stand the tank in a bowl of warm water between agitations. Fixer and wash do not care as much.
Black and white, mostly Rodinal.

I have gone back to Rodinal 1+100 stand development for everything black and white. One hour, agitate for the first minute and once at thirty minutes, then leave it alone. It is forgiving of mixed exposures, which is useful when half the roll was shot indoors and half in sunshine. The grain is not subtle, but I like it.
