I have an old recipie for sweet pickles using alum. There are no detailed
instructions on the proper rinsing procedure. Does anyone have any
experience using alum in pickling?

Alum is aluminum and is often left in not rinsed out. It's really not
needed. Make sure your produce is really fresh. Many sliced pickles also
use a soak in ice water to help them stay crisp.
