Sounds like the developer has oxidized. IAC, I've used one or two of the Agfa developers - Neutol? - and decided not to use them any more.

Any one here use the Agfa multi contrast paper developer successfully.?
I recently bought a bottle,as it was the only thing available. My first time using my own darkroom setup was to do 20 contact sheets,which looked ok. The second and third time,all the prints seemed to have some contrast but also a heavy grey tint to them. I stored the clear bottle in darkness,but i noticed at time 2 and 3,there were quite a few brown droplet stains on the inside and seemed to make the solution off colour when mixed with water.
I used a #3 filter at both school and home.A Beseler 35 printmaker at school and a Vivitar E32 at home.School developer is Ilford,yet my school prints are good and contrasty,my home ones grey but with contrast. One thing is the suare filters are a bit to big for the Vivitar and they sit on a bit of a slant.Could that be throughing light off a bit,??
Is the Agfa partially to blame or is it me and my Viv.:-)
