Cooks following brine and curing recipes
Worth noticing
Its example gives the same batch as 3.00% salt by water weight and 2.91% by total solution weight.

Field notes

The page distinguishes salt divided by water from salt divided by the combined salt-and-water mass, and also offers a food-plus-water basis. Its worked example uses 1,000 g water and 30 g salt: 3.00% on the water basis, or 2.91% by solution weight. The page explicitly limits the tool to ingredient calculations and directs readers to a tested recipe for food and process safety.
