You may not realize it but at 2:22 you do one of the smartest things I have seen a fermenter do. You did not take out a bowl and measure the salt into that. You added the salt right into the water right there at the scale. Smart. It saves a skip. Now if I only had a scale. I make up my brine the day before I expect to get large amounts of produce magically land in my kitchen for free from various sources. The 24 hours gives the chlorine, it is chlorine and it does evaporate in 24 hours, a chance to evaporate out. It is in a large glass jar with a spout. With the brine all ready it makes it so much easier to ferment right now rather than wait. I like fermenting whole small onions and also tomatoes. I share my ferments back with the same people who make the produce land in my kitchen.

Thanks, Nancy! :) I love my kitchen scale, esp. when it comes to mixing brine. Weight is so much simpler than volume! Fortunately they are pretty inexpensive. I'm using one I bought almost 10 years ago and it's just $12!
