Un-diluted HC110 will last at least two years in the original plastic
bottle. Put in a tightly stoppered glass bottle, it will probably last
even longer.
Properly mixed XTOL will last up to a year in a tightly stoppered
glass bottle.
I don't know how long Rodinal will last ... when I was shooting film,
I would use it up long before a year went by.
But I don't think about these things any longer... ;-)

The list has done it. I have been looking at all the fantastic
Black &
white photos and have had trouble with drool. (Anybody want to
purchase a
slightly damp keyboard?)I would like to try some B&W.
Do I whip out my Gossen and open up 3 stops from white? Is this
something I can do in Raw Processing? (Or should do?) For the
moment, I am
sticking with PSE 3 but have kept Raw as up-to-date as I can. Are
these
workable for processing.
Or do I buy a roll of Tri-X and a new bottle of Rodinol?
Yes.
I think I'd go for HC110. The amount of film I use these days the
developer will die before I use it unless it has an extremely long
shelf
life.
While HC-110 certainly has a long shelf life, I doubt it can stand up
to Rodinal's reputation.
