I mix the cure with water. I gave it 12 hrs maybe I need to give it 24 hrs.

Thanks. I didn’t use eca this time because I couldn’t find any. Thats why I let it sit in the fridg. for 12 hrs. I will give the sodium erythorbate at try. Is that the actual name or is it called something else? Guess I’ll have to start hording ingredients so I have them next time. Thank again.
