Please Help: Question About "contaminated" Bottles Of Inks
Brianm_14 posted a topic in Inky Thoughts
Hello, As a microbiologist and a life-long user of fountain pens, the problem of contaminated or "infected" bottles of fountain pen inks has long been a place where my interest have intersected. I have never experienced this problem (lucky me!), so I am forced to look for reports from other users. I do, however, understand the angst that accompanies the loss of a bottle of well-loved, and expensive ink for any reason. Ouch! A question occured to me the other day: has anyone had a contamination problem with a bottle of iron gall ink? I cannot recall seeing any reports of a bottle of iron- 9 replies

First Lamy, then Montblanc, stopping their production of IG ink. Why, oh god, why? All I wanted is a blue (ok doesn't really matter, blue-black is ok, but not black, I hated black), waterproof (some running of ink is ok, but it has still to be legible.), dry (no bleed thru on 80gsm paper, but still resonable to write with), safe in celluloid pen ink. So is this really difficult to get? Yes. ESSRI is a weak blue when writing and is very very very dry.
