Hi Loris,
I printed an 8x10 step wedge, ripped it in thirds, and tested developers hot and room temp, so same print, same paper, same exposure. I can see no grain difference between am cit and pot ox but a MAJOR color difference and a slight speed difference.
I had always used the citrates before, but when I finally used pot ox there was no turning back for me. But I love the warm tones.
If I wanted neutral I would go back to ammonium citrate but I might use it heated up. I don't know where my test strips of sodium citrate are but I don't remember much difference between ammonium and sodium though don't quote me on that one.
I will send you a jpg offlist.
