Quick overview of how to shoot Expired film
Over-expose from film's box speed (1 stop per decade since expiry is a good rough rule for films of 400 ISO/ASA or lower, but try to find out how the film was stored). I do this by lowering the ISO/ASA on my camera. If in doubt, always add an extra stop!
Higher ISO/ASA films will degrade more extremely than lower ISO/ASA films, so adjust your over-exposure settings accordingly
Most expired film can be developed normally
If you couldn't over-expose when shooting, push +1 or +2 stops in development
Color negative and black & white film degrade quicker than slide film, but deal with over/under-exposure much better
