Re-use pickel brine with new vegetables?

I recently bought a delicious Giardiniera and now that it's almost finished, would like to add more of the same vegetables. Is that O.K?

Should have mentioned... doesn't always work too well with raw vegetables. You might need to steam the vegetables first. Read up a little on "quick" pickling.

Yes, like Zombie says. Just keep it refrigerated.

Yeah you can do that. I used pickled beet juice for hard boiled eggs as well :)
