Coffee as a developer

[Trevor Cunningham <trevor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

One of the things keeping me from shooting film is the absence of 
dedicated chemistry in Saudi as well as the challenge and cost of 
shipping them as well. Then a thread on the alt-process forum popped up 
about using coffee and a base as a developing agent for film and paper. 
A RIT /*article*/ <http://people.rit.edu/andpph/text-coffee.html> 
explains some brief research into the process, but lacked the referenced 
images.

1) Does anyone have experience with this? or have images resulting from 
this process to share?

2) I would also need a DIY soup recipe for fixer. Hypo? Can't I get that 
from someplace that sells swimming pool supplies?

I'd really like to get a pile of Adox film. My Mamiya has been 
collecting dust for about four years now...feeling guilty.
