I have one of these and the trick to pouring out is to ignore the processor and pour out the opposite side just as you would if hand developing. Do not try to pour out using that ramp for pouring in. And you already did what I did, buy a USB-C plug. I understand from another video AGO is going to supply those on newer runs of their units. Keep these coming on your AGO journey. I’m still new to it myself and have used it only 4 times. Did DF96 with it too. So far great results. Thanks for sharing.
@@fvlwrs Although I have seen people just pour, I hold onto the AGO unit with my free hand so it does not fall off. But it does seem to be on solidly but why take a chance.
The extra stick is for agitation if you're processing without the AGO. It's an alternative to inversion agitation. The weird plug looking piece is an adapter for older Patterson tanks I'd definitely recommend making custom programs for black and white. It's a game changer for longer development times
@@slippinjimmothy ooo good to know thanks! I haven’t tried black and white yet, still getting over my color fomo but I’m sure I’ll get over that soon haha 🤣
maybe the blix time is fine with 6:00 at 102F. I normally develop blix much cooler than 102 so that could possibly account for needing more time but I know in the instructions it still says like 75-102 as the proper range. not entirely sure about that though
I saw in another video where someone stood the whole thing on end then removed the processor and then pored the chemistry out from the tank. I have no clue where I saw it though.
You need to ask your local waste system. There’s usually info on their website or you can give them a call and ask the requirements to dispose of photographic chemicals. Alternatively you could ask a local film lab or community developing club, but they’ll probably recommend the same thing.

I have not seen a video of yours in like 8-9 years. Glad i caught up with them today! Love your style and colors.
@@LifeOfOscarin 🥹🥹🥹 that means so much Ty!

@@fromanotherdayfilm I think so too, these rolls were done at 8 and everything seemed fine I’ll try at 6 in the future just to see lol
Happy belated birthday! Nice video, I really like the look from the ago
aahh ty!!! it means a lot!
As Hashem from Pushing Film does, just flip the AGO upside down and pout it out from the canister 😃
@@texturner5940 yea, started doing it that way and it works out better. My brain really wanted to use the ramps tho 😔
Lets goooo! New video!!🎉
Sick film!
Ty!! 🥰
Yassss new video!!! we eatin today!!!!🔥🔥🔥

how do you dispose of your chemicals? I wanna develop at home too but I dunno where to dispose of mine.
