If brown water is coming from your hot water taps only, it may be rust and sediment in your water heater acting up. Water heaters usually have a lifespan of 10 to 15 years. If your water heater falls somewhere in this range, and your hot water comes out brown often, it may be time to replace it.
Curing is any of various food preservation and flavoring processes of foods such as meat, fish and vegetables, by the addition of combinations of salt, nitrates, nitrites, or sugar, with the aim of drawing moisture out of the food by the process of osmosis. Many curing processes also involve smoking, spicing, or cooking.
Factors that influence curing: 1  The size of the meat - the larger meat the longer curing time. 2  Temperature - higher temperature, faster curing. 3  Moisture content of the meat.  Salt concentration of dry mixture or wet curing solution-higher salt concentration, faster 1  curing. Amount of fat-more fat in meat, slower curing.
