Making brine in advance for small batch fermented pickles

Hi! My pickles are starting to come in. Not enough to warrant breaking out my crocks, but enough that I could in theory start fermenting quart or half gallon jars. I was thinking that if I make the brine today, I could come home tomorrow and pick the pickles to get a small batch going, and do that for the rest of the week. Has anyone tried this before? I searched the forum, and found something about not keeping brine for longer than a week? So in theory, I'm seeing no reason why this wouldn't work, right? Thanks for any input you might have. :)
