Re: [Leica] making dektol solution

Was the Dektol brown in color before you mixed it? A few months ago Kodak
used raw chemicals by mistake in the Dektol 5 gallon developer. Raw chemical
is brown in color. Though the developer works fine, it's an ugly
brown/copper color. Kodak did recall any "brown" Dektol packages.
