DO NOT do that in or close to your kitchen, where you cook your food! let alone pouring the chemicals to your kitchen sink. E-6 is nasty stuff.
DO NOT tumble around the chemicals in the tank. the inversions should be gentle and slow, so the chemical compound will cover all the film all the time. otherwise you'll get streaks of uneven development or worse.
DO use separate funnels for different chemicals, so they last longer.
be careful, stay safe, have good photos, have a nice day.
good stuff i learnt something valuable! i just processed some velvia 100f but it cam out very very dark reason being is i only heated first dev to 35. shouldn't have treated it as c41 ohh well. thanks for posting this
Excellent work. You are a natural teacher. I'm buying this processing kit tomorrow.

Very good video. I see the Arista kit for about $35 online. Do you think you could get 10 rolls out of it?

Nice video, one question: what about the water/chemicals gettint cold while you work? Is that important?

@indywayne44 Yes Ektachrome 100D reversal should work with any E-6 kit. At least according to Kodak Technical Data J-83 (google it).

How many rolls of film is it possible to process with 1 kit?

Very nice. I got a Jobo processor and now I see it was a complete waste of money. It would be better put my money on chemicals.

Very nice, you are, I believe, the first American video in youtube showing the Arista E6 process home developing. I am going to try by myself.
