You need to check your salt.  It goes up and down just like the pH.  Get a Salometer.  Your pickle's should read 40%+  I like to keep mine around 45%.  One thing to remember is that the acid and salt are both cheap.  Not a bad idea to make a new pickle every time.

It's very economical ,so I always mix a new batch,but if your gonna reuse your gonna have to make sure to check your salt content along with the ph. Shocked Grin
