One of my early posts was about how to replace and change silver pickle.  I realized shortly after creating the post that a video would be a nice addition.  Nine months later here it is!

There are instructions about ratio-to-ratio mixtures and proper mixing on all different pickle solution boxes.  However, the problem with these instructions is that most people use small crock-pots that are of varying sizes bought from hardware stores and Wal-Mart.  I was taught how to mix pickle in a more improvised fashion.

Put cold water in your neutralized and clean crock-pot.  Then sprinkle in a dusting of the dry pickle mixture on the bottom of the crock-pot.  Stir the water with your copper tongs until all the dry mixture is dissolved.  The water will turn a milky color. Bring the crock-pot back to your work area and let it sit for a little time.  Your old pickle may have been a deep blue color, but the new pickle will be transparent.  As it gets older it will become blue again.
