Because vinegar is more dense than water.
Can you reuse the brine from making bread and butter pickles?
I have frequently reused pickle brine in recipes asking for vinegar. It has more interesting flavor than regular vinegar. I have no idea if it can be reused for pickling though.
Are pickles fruit?
No, pickles are not fruit they are actually cucumbers (a vegtable) that have been soaked in vinigar and other things Pickling may well originate with the Roman practice of preserving food in sour wine, and refers to the method of preservation, not specifically to the items preserved, which might include fruit, vegetables, cheese or seafood. Indian pickles typically employ oil and salt as the preservation medium. Japanese pickles are more likely to employ brine. Most other parts of the world use vinegar as a preservative. NB: cucumbers are a fruit.Yes
Why do your canned dill pickles have a weak flavor?
It may just be the recipe that you are using. Some recipes have higher vinegar to water ratios, and some uses more spices.
When you add baking soda to vinegar the mixture fizzes as carbon dioxide is produced Suppose you added water to the vinegar before you mixed it with the baking soda what do you think will happen?
It will still fizz, but fizz less the more water is added to the vinegar (acid) solution. Vinegar is already a diluted solution of acetic acid, and is mostly water.
Could drinking vinegar while pregnant cause a miscarriage?
The short answer is NO, it will not cause a miscarriage. This is an urban legend and a poor one at that. For a more detailed explanation from Planned Parenthood, see: http://www.teenwire.com/ask/2001/as-20010917p280.php Think about it this way, pickles contain vinegar and pregnant women love pickles (or so the stereotype goes) If vinegar caused miscarriages, would pregnant women continue to eat pickles (would we have the stereotype)?

How does the temperature affect the pH of vinegar?
Vinegar affects pH by making a liquid more acidic when it is added into the mix. It causes an increase in alkalinity in the body.
Do you use cider vinegar in your pickles?
From a preservation (and safety) standpoint, any commercial vinegar is the same as any other. All must be sold with a minimum of 5% acidity. The reason to choose Cider vinegar, or any other flavor vinegar, is simply taste. Errr, Taste, and the recipe. Personally, for Bread & Butter pickles, Cider is just fine. But when I use Grandmother Hoskins Salt Dill recipe -- well Cider is to harsh with all that salt. I use a home-made wine vinegar because it is much sweeter. I recommend taste testing. Mix up a very small test batch, and using different vinegars, taste the brine straight. If it turns out that you like pure distilled white vinegar, then more power to you. If you like 45 year old Aged Italian Balsamic vinegar, then more power to your wallet.
Does vinegar have any chemicals that is hazardous when mixed together?
Vinegar is only a solution (5 %-9 %) of acetic acid in water; sometimes are added balsamic extracts from plants for more flavour.
