I set up a javascript Universal Cure Calculator on my website.
Here's the link for anyone who wants to play around with it....
http://www.diggingdogfarm.com/page2.html
The calculator can be used to calculate the amount of cure and salt required in sausage...the amounts of cure, salt and sugar for a dry cure mix...it can also be used to calculate the ingredients for an equilibrium brine, etc.
[COLOR=#red]The calculator is preset for Cure #1 at 6.25%, do not change that number unless you know what you are doing.[/COLOR]
Update: I changed the 6.25% value to "read only" so it can't be changed.
There's also a handy weight converter for converting pounds to grams.
Please only use the calculator if you have a full understanding of the technical and safety issues involved.
Triple check your work!!!
Have fun!
