Thanks Edmund. So it would appear that somewhere along the line between 2017 and the present day Bellini changed the size of its concentrate from 100ml to 240ml. Presumably there was a reason but as long as both concs work then it doesn't really matter

I think the water wash between stages is simply to prevent carryover from say dev to bleach but as the carryover is limited anyway this may not matter

Do you only bleach for 45 secs or use a longer time? I must admit to being very nervous about whether the bleach can do its job in 45 secs
How many films do you stabilise with the 1L before dumping it and moving on to another new 1L? This bring me on to the final question as this will affect how far 1L of stab has to stretch and this is: How many films do you get out the the kit?

Thanks

Mike
