Default ID11 - has it got easier to mix ?

When I started off in photography about 40 years ago, mixing up ID11 used to be a pain.

It used to take ages to get first the contents of packet A to dissolve and then even longer for all of packet B.

Yesterday, I made up a new batch of ID11 and both packets A and B both dissolved easily, in next to no time.

Then when I filtered the stock solution, there was almost no content left in the filter.

I remember when I started, there were always plenty of bits of grit and other things left behind including the occasional dead flea.

Have the quality of the ingredients improved dramatically over the years or are the rose tinted spectacles kicking in ?

What is everyone else's experiences ?

Martin
