OVERVIEW
The Delta 1 Mix-Up Cup - 20oz (600 ml) is a practical utility container designed for photographers, darkroom workers, and printmakers who need a simple, dependable way to measure and mix liquids. Whether you are preparing black-and-white chemistry, color processing solutions, or general-purpose darkroom mixtures, this cup offers a convenient 20 oz / 600 ml capacity that fits well into everyday workflow.
Its compact format makes it especially useful for small-batch mixing, test runs, and controlled chemical preparation. For darkroom users, a dedicated mixing cup can help keep processes organized and improve consistency from one session to the next.
Key Features
The Mix-Up Cup is sized for common darkroom and lab tasks, offering enough volume for many standard chemical mixes without taking up excessive bench space. The straightforward cup design is easy to handle, quick to rinse, and convenient for repeated use during printing or film processing sessions.
Its measured capacity of 20 ounces (600 milliliters) makes it a versatile choice for users who work with both imperial and metric references. This can be especially helpful when following legacy darkroom formulas, manufacturer instructions, or classroom demonstrations.
Benefits for Darkroom Use
In darkroom environments, consistency matters. Having a dedicated cup for mixing chemistry can help reduce guesswork and support cleaner workflow practices. The Delta 1 Mix-Up Cup is well suited to preparing developers, stop bath, fixer, and other liquid solutions in manageable quantities.
Because of its moderate capacity, it is also useful for photographers who do not want to mix a full liter at a time. This can help reduce waste when testing new materials, processing smaller film batches, or mixing chemistry only as needed.
Usage Tips
For best results, dedicate separate mixing tools and containers to different chemicals whenever possible. Clearly label your darkroom accessories to avoid cross-contamination. After use, rinse the cup thoroughly according to the chemistry manufacturer's safety and disposal guidelines.
Many photographers find it helpful to keep multiple cups on hand—one for developer, one for stop bath, and one for fixer—to streamline workflow and minimize cleanup between steps.
Recommended Accessories
This mixing cup pairs well with darkroom graduates, storage bottles, stirring paddles, thermometers, timers, and chemical labels. It is also a useful companion to film developing tanks, print trays, and other wet-process accessories used in analog photography.
