Mike Ware's Cyanotype. Part 1 - Mixing and testing

Testing the one solution of Mike Ware's Cyanotype.
1) In a container, add to a 100ml of distilled water 30gr of Ammonium Iron Oxalate
2) Add 10gr of Potassium Ferricyanide
3) As a preservative add 0.1gr of Ammonium Dichromate (Optional)
or a few drops of an essential oil to make the emulsion last longer.
4) Mix and place the container on a heat source and mix till all dissolve completely.
5) Cover the container and place it in a cool place overnight
6) Use a funnel and a coffee filter to separate the emulsion and the crystals
7) Store the emulsion in an amber bottle
Testing the emulsion:
Add a bit of citric acid to a few MLs of the Ware solution, coat your sized paper, let it dry and expose for third of the time of your regular Cyanotype, spray a 1% solution of HCL (Hydrochloric Acid) and then rinse in water.

    You're very welcome. The gruesome world events were distracting and took away all motivation and energy. Hopefully things will become peaceful soon. Lots of material on its way. Best regards.
