After I calibrated my monitor I noticed that my B&W photos had a slight
brownish tint. (I typically use the monochrome module to to do the B&W
conversion.) In order to get a black and white image without such a tint I
am now lowering just a tiny bit both the black and the white dots in the
color correction module. If you are using a calibrated monitor, please take
a look at these two versions of the same photo:

Standard B&W conversion with the adjustment explained above:

This is the correction I am now using to get rid of the slight brownish
tint (in the color correction module):
