Brine Calculator
Using the right ratio of salt to water in brine is important. I remember my first attempt at fermenting cucumbers. I thought, “How hard can it be?” A pinch of salt, and some water, and into the jar they went.
A week later, I had a jar of over-salted, shriveled cucumbers. That’s when I realized how crucial the right brine ratio was.
However measuring precisely can be tough when converting between teaspoons, grams, and liters. That’s why I built this calculator and used it. With our Salt Brine Calculator, you get an exact measurement that’s reliable every time.
With just a few inputs, you’ll know exactly how much salt brine you need, down to the last drop.

Key Components of the Salt Brine Calculation
- Salt Concentration/Target Brine: The percentage of salt in the brine solution. Common concentrations range from 20% to 30% for de-icing applications.
- Water Volume: The amount of water used in the mixture, typically measured in liters.
- Salt Volume: The amount of salt required, calculated based on the desired concentration and water volume.
Using this salt brine calculator, you can easily determine the right brine solution.
