I find film sticking a lot going onto reel in changing bag. Our apartment is prob around 24 degrees, is that way too warm to use changing bag, if so, how cool of a temp do I need to prevent sticking in changing bag? Much appreciated. Great channel, looking forward to film/darkroom content!

I always use the plastic reels. I have never used the metal reels.

I learned on the metal reels and it is much better. Too much problems with the plastic reels because they stick to edges and you can't load it.

I don't think you should be touching the emulsion with your finger the entire time.
