Pour off brine, rinse, and then cover with cold water to which Alum has been added. Let set for 24 hours. Pour off water. Cover with cold cider vinegar to which pickling spices have been added. Let set for 24 hours. Drain off vinegar but leave pickling spice. Add 3 c. sugar, let set for 24 hours, add 3 more c. sugar, let set for 24 hours, and then add 3 more cups sugar. This makes a juice to cover the pickles. Just leave pickles in the gallon jar and set on a shelf. Take out as needed to serve. These have a long shelf life and are very crispy.
