[QUOTE="MuskyManiac, post: 317679, member: 381"] That is a recipe for disaster. You might have gotten lucky so far, but the idea of a boiling hot water bath is not to get it to seal, but to drive all the oxygen out of the jar. You can get jars to "pop" with just hot brine, but that is not the process of canning. If you tried doing that with low acid items you could really run into some trouble. To get crispy pickles make sure you're using the right cucumbers, but also make sure those cucumbers are sitting in an ice bath and are very cold before canning. [/QUOTE]
