CLEANING THE VACUUM SEALER
HINTS & TIPS
Store perishable foods in the freezer or refrigerator. Vacuum packing extend the
shelf life of foods, but does not preserve them.
Many foods are sold pre-packed in commercial vacuum bags such as cheese and
deli meats. Now, you can maintain the taste and freshness of these foods, by
re-packaging with the vacuum sealer bags after the commercially packed bags have
been opened.
Pantry items such as our, rice, mixed for cakes and pancakes, all stay fresher longer
when vacuum packed. Nuts and condiments maintain their avor while rancidity is
kept out.
For objects with sharp points and edges, such as bones or dried pasta, pad the
edges with paper towels to keep them from puncturing the bag or use canisters.
There are many non-food uses for vacuum packing. Keep camping supplies such as
matches, rst aid kits and clothing, clean and dry. Keep ares for auto emergencies
ready. Keep silver and collectibles untarnished. Also store and protect other
valuables such as photos, important documents, stamp collections, book collec-
tions, jewelry, cards and comics; hardware items, such as screws, nails, studs and
bolts; medicines, band-aids and other rst-aid items, etc..
In general, vacuum packaging keeps food fresh up to three times as long as other
traditional food storage methods. This appliance will become an indispensable part
of your life by deterring food waste and save more money.
