Nor really directly relevant to this form of toning post cyanotype but what it shows for me that is worth remembering for "staining" is that in Tim Rudman's Toning Book I felt that tea was much the stronger and better "stainer" than coffee. Given the colour of coffee v tea I had not expected this and wondered if in real prints the difference was much less but clearly not

That is not to say that coffee post cyanotype doesn't have its own attractive look.

I remain undecided in terms of the "no bleach" tones. I can think of pics that might well suit the coffee tones better than tea
