There should be enough to submerge the green beans under the brine. If not, make more brine and add it to the jar.Cover the jar loosely with a lid and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight for 3-7 days.Once the brine is cloudy, try a green bean to see if it's ready. It should be sour and smell like pickles.Store in the refrigerator for up to a month.
