I use a Jobo processor and used the times in the data sheet as a starting point. However, following a suggestion passed on by Christer earlier this year, I have just today developed a roll of Delta 100 in DD-X, diluted 1+9, 12 mins. at 24C/75F. The result is excellent! It seems that you really have to do your own testing to see what works for you.
