Making a simple brine is an essential step but it’s often difficult to find the ratio of salt and water required.
Here’s my simple salt/water brine calculator.
(based on 1 litre of water)
Just multiply by the amount of water you use – i.e. for two litres of water, multiply the amount of salt required by 2
Concentration | Salt Required |
10% | 29g |
20% | 57g |
30% | 88g |
40% | 122g |
50% | 156g |
60% | 193g |
70% | 232g |
80% | 273g |
90% | 318g |
100% | 368g |
