I like to give my skins at least 2-3 weeks in a brine, and be sure to stir them from time to time. The longer a skin stays in the brine the better the results and I have some in my fridge have been in there for more than a year. If the skin is not brined long enough it will fall apart faster. You'll know it's good to go when it feels like leather and loses that soft feel of a fresh skin.
