Nice video. One mistake I made was to over-tighten the jars, which resulted in the lid warping and not sealing properly. If you look at the Ball website, they mention this. The say that you should "finger tighten" them. Apparently the way the jars work is that the air inside has to be able to escape as they pickles cook and if the lids are too tight that won't happen. So taking a towel and really screwing the lids down on there is probably not a good idea. At least not with Ball jars.

I honestly thought that you just put cucumbers in a jar of vinegar and let them sit in a dark closet somewhere.

I didn't know pickles were this complicated

Why the music? Its irritating, it does nothing to pickling cucumbers, it just makes harder to listen and watch the video. I'll take this channel of my list to watch.

I always cut them. But I let them sit in ice for about 30mi before caning, and they stay crisp.

I eat my pickles in 2 to 3 day and there great.
