Add calcium chloride, a bay leaf in each jar, a grape leaf, all those have enough tannins to keep them crispy.

Thanks, Great Lakes! Thanks for the Lena cameo! How is she these days?

[@GreatLakesPrepping]

Hi Drummer. She's doing alright for the most part. Warm months are usually better for her, so she's pretty good right now.

I love that crinkle cut knife. I in my own little world have never seen one before. Have you ever tried making salt-free pickles? I read somewhere it uses grape leaves instead of salt but I am not sure. Just curious though. Peace To All!

[@GreatLakesPrepping]

I've not heard of that salt-free technique. Sounds interesting though.

@@GreatLakesPrepping I love pickles but I have to keep my sodium intake at less than 1000mg per day and aim for about 500mg. That isn't easy but I can usually do it with my girlfriends help. If you ever find a recipe that works for salt free. I'll be your 1st customer. Peace To All!

Look online, especially on the Ball picking instructions for bread & butter picking suggestions section.

Is that mrs wages refrigerator pickle mix?

[@GreatLakesPrepping]

It's Mrs. Wages Zesty Bread & Butter Pickle Mix. A link to the product is in the video description.

[@iluminameluna]

It can be used either way, water bath canning, OR in the refrigerator.

What makes the pickles spicy?

Voice too low in some parts ?

[@litahsr.8226]

damn lost count on the sugar by going to fast and no recipe on show more 🙄

[@iluminameluna]

The recipe on the pkg says 7 cups, if anyone is still interested. This is an excellent video on how to pack those jars.
