As my cukes become ready to cut up and pickle, I end up making 1-2 jars of pickles every day or every couple of days in July. I get really tired of making small amounts of brine. Can I mix up a gallon of it and just store it? That way I can just add the spices, garlic and sliced cukes and then pour the brine. Should I refrigerate the gallon of brine at all? Any problem with doing this you can think of? I make refrigerator pickles and the brine is probably 55% vinegar 45% water, salt and sugar.
