Bacteria can grow in vacuum seal bags if there is moisture present. If the bag is dry, bacteria will not be able to grow.
Yes, you can use Ziploc bags with your vacuum sealer. Just be sure to use the bags that are made for vacuum sealers, as regular Ziploc bags will not work as well.
Yes, you can use any bags with vacuum sealers as long as they are compatible. There are many different types and brands of vacuum sealers on the market, so it is important to check the compatibility of the bags before purchasing them. Some vacuum sealers can only be used with specific bags, while others can be used with any type of bag.
You can vacuum seal frozen meat, but it's not the best way to store it. Frozen meat is best stored in the freezer, in its original packaging, for up to six months.

The rolls that came with my Food Saver machine didn't perform as well as this product, in my opinion. The Food Saver bags were difficult for me to get to properly seal. They first appeared to be good, but when I defrosted meat, they leaking and caused a mess in my refrigerator. I've been using these bags for four months, and so far I've never had a defrosting leak and always have an airtight seal!Because there is more product per roll, the rolls are bigger in diameter than the Food Saver bags! It cannot be stored in the machine until I have reduced it to the proper size. I don't mind this; I just keep it till it fits in the machine with the other excess bags or rolls I have (the machine can only hold one roll at a time).Additionally, they lack the white label area, but I can still write on the bag and it still functions properly.

I've been looking for a vacuum sealer for a very long time, but I always assumed I'd have to shell out a lot of money for a more well-known brand. Sincerely, the food saver belongs to my mother.

Recently, my wife and I discussed how much food we are wasting away due to spoilage. As a result, we arrived at a vacuum sealer. I looked into it and discovered the Mooka sealer. I chose to take a chance because the pricing was reasonable. Please be aware that we are still testing this out after only receiving it last week on November 1. I packaged some fruit for smoothies and put it in the freezer. I made that up and had extra after three days in the freezer, so I sealed that up and frozen that. I had Eggo Waffles this morning and opted to vacuum seal the remaining halves because they always get freezer burned. We want to vacuum seal a bunch of produce and meats this afternoon while my wife shops for groceries. I have no idea how to evaluate the durability. Although only time will tell, it appears to be quite nicely crafted. It is quite effective and simple to use. To everyone, I would suggest this product!NEWS 11/7/2018: I just got the sous vide bags because I wanted to be able to use them again for other purposes. A hand vacuum pump was included with the bags. I tried the hand pump, and while it did function, it did so rather slowly. I unplugged the pump's end and connected the vacuum hose that was included with the Mooka. Wonderfully effective! Yes, the bags leak, as several reviews have said. I covered the vent hole with a piece of Scotch Tape after vacuuming out the air, and it works!

I adore these purses! I utilize them for several purposes. Excellent for opening up large packs of meat that are on sale. I add some marinade and then seal. Use a portion immediately away, freeze the remainder, and they will be ready when thawed. Better and thicker than a typical zip bag.Additionally, we cut fruit into slices and freeze it for smoothies. They repeatedly reseal with great success. Simply spread out your fruit on a cookie sheet and freeze it to make it stiff so that it won't cling together when sealed. Cheese blocks can also last a lifetime if they are tightly sealed after each use. I store numerous bricks in separate bags and put them all in this bag before sealing it.

I do enjoy how these bags effectively vacuum-seal perishable items. My one and only criticism is that some foods, despite initially appearing to seal tightly, may actually produce a little hole in the bag. Air slowly escapes out. As a result, it relies on what you put in. For instance: Ground coffee doesn't work as well as coffee beans do. The smallest particle of ground coffee seems to become stuck in the sliding seal component and cause the vacuum to degrade with time. The edges of the dog chews, such as Greenies or Denta Sticks, poked a tiny hole in the bag when I tried to shut it, therefore the bag did not securely seal. You already know how soon these chewy-type things go bad if you save them.I also attempted to reseal a couple bags; some succeeded, some failed. Due to the price, I assume they are a one-time use item, thus I won't buy them again. Although the device to remove the air doesn't come with them, I already had one from a previous purchase that performed wonderfully.I'm still giving them a four star rating because they perform well when used as a one-time product with the correct dish, like rice.

Although these bags did not advertise having an absorbent strip within them, they do not; however, one side of the bag contains a diamond grid design that accomplishes the same task by delaying the flow of liquid as the bag decompresses.The quantity ground meat we used when testing these so far prevented the blood from reaching the sealing section before it sealed.These are big enough to securely accommodate two huge stuffed peppers or roughly 1.5 pounds of hamburger. Possibly four large pigs under the blankets.

I've just used it twice, so if my opinion changes, I'll try to update this. Additionally, I have no knowledge about alternative vacuum cleaners to contrast this one with.It seems to work really well. I used this as a sauce once, twice on broccoli, and once as a marinade for chicken. Now, such moist food is *not* suited for this machine.results: Some of the food contained air bubbles. The worst was the broccoli. I believe this is a result of its shape. While a piece of chicken is more like a single block, broccoli has many ups and downs. If you can, I believe it is beneficial to get the air bubbles all the way to the top of the bag.The latching mechanism appears to be weak. So far, it's running smoothly. One reviewer at least claimed that his had come broken, and I can understand how that might happen. I calculate that if this item lasts me at least two years, it will have been worth the money. So far, I believe it will, but I advise caution in this area.The buttons are touch-based rather than mechanical. That is good because touch buttons appear to be very futuristic and mechanical buttons frequently fail. However, they are really sensitive because I unintentionally touched them.I initially thought the machine was poorly constructed because of the way it splits in two, but now I see that this is actually a positive feature. It is very simple to cleanse any liquid that may have gotten into the machine's bottom. If enough liquid enters the machine that it enters the top, I suggest getting a new one. Even if it keeps working, it won't be hygienic.To get this machine to function with liquids, I discovered this "one unusual method." You act at your own risk IF you choose to do this. The machine could be ruined by liquid. I just mention this to illustrate my own experience—not to offer advice on how to operate this particular device.I added the sauce to the bag with the food. Since the vacuum forces the sauce in the direction of the food, less sauce is required.The bag must not be overfilled with liquid when it is placed in the machine and is ready to pull the vacuum. The top, which may be 3 inches or more, must remain dry while it is lying there. To keep as much moisture out of the machine as possible, I even dry it with a paper towel.I folded a paper towel into three layers and an inch-wide strip after cutting it to the exact width of the bag's opening. After that, trim the remaining paper towel.I In the dry area, put the paper towel on top of the bag. It must be inserted far enough so that the paper towel does not impede the top inch or so. This is required because paper towels must *not* impede the component of the machine that makes the seal. However, it shouldn't be too far away from the sauce to be soaking in it. If your bag is particularly saucy, switch the machine's settings to "gentle" and "wet," but keep in mind that these settings do not produce a strong vacuum. On the other hand, if you utilize the default settings, food fluids may end up in the vacuum cleaner—ew.You can see the sauce hit the paper towel and begin to soak in as the suction pulls, but the vacuum will stop and the bag will be sealed. All of this requires some practice... Before attempting it with food, I gave it two tries with just water while keeping my finger on the "cancel" button.

The foodsaver is AMAZING! I don't know how I put it off for so long, but this item has become indispensible in our kitchen. When I was growing up, my family owned one, but as a single college student and a couple in their 20s buying in modest amounts, it never seemed like something we'd use.A Costco membership, though, altered everything.THE BENEFITS- It is quite easy to use and comes out of the box ready to use. Connect it, take a portion of the bag off the roll, or use one of the offered bags, and leave. The only buttons on the entire device are two, and if you've ever seen a vacuum sealer in use, you probably won't even need them. The directions are quite simple.- The detachable drip tray is really nicely made. The foodsaver is primarily used by me to vacuum seal meat, either on its own or with a marinade or flavor. Simply remove the tray out and give it a quick wash when the extra juices run out the end of the bag. I would detest having to scrounge around in there to extract all the meat liquid.- Much quieter than the childhood model my mother had. It's not always quiet, but it's also not annoying.As lovely as a small appliance may be, it is nicely made. It is really sleek and polished black, and when put out on the counter, it looks fine.THE CONS- The product itself is completely faultless. Checking the instructions has always made it simple for me to handle any minor issues I've encountered in recent months. In actuality, the only issue ever was that one time it simply continued sucking air and never sealing, and the only issue was that one of the inside foam edges that makes it airtight had been knocked and come loose. The issue was resolved by pushing it back into place, and it has never returned. Although I also purchase generic bags from big-box retailers, I can see that the brand-name bags are of higher quality if you require them.Overall, I adore the foodsaver since it makes buying in bulk a world of possibilities.

I spent some time looking for a tool for this job that was fairly priced. The Nutrichef is superior to the others I've observed because it:• Small (about the size of a dozen eggs)Simple, inexpensive, lightweight, and economical (uses generic bag material)I've had it for 48 hours. Maybe a dozen food items have been packaged by me. All of the seals seem to be holding.The bags cost around 10 cents because I bought the bag material in bulk from Amazon for approximately 16 cents per foot (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01NCZMQUU/ref=cm cr ryp prd ttl sol 1). This costs less than a third of what FoodSaver bags cost and a fifth of what Waring bags cost.Only the following prevented me from giving it five stars:1. Positioning the bags correctly can be challenging. They won't properly seal if you don't. I've included a picture of a configuration that I find to be effective. The "Vacuum Chamber" must have the end of the bag about halfway inside.2. The directions are unclear, possibly as a result of the non-native English writer. It would have been really beneficial to have some drawings outlining where to put the bags.3. Because at least 1-1/2" of additional material is required at the closure end, which makes the bags bulky, the bags can take up a lot of room in the freezer once they are closed and sealed.4. Because it takes over two minutes to create each bag, the process might become cumbersome. The process would go considerably more quickly if a device that accurately and semi-automatically aligns the bag material were designed (Nutirchef: Are you listening? I can assist you in this.We'll have to wait and see how well they preserve food and how long they survive. Later, I'll update this page.Updated on March 28th, 2018: =========Although I do write a lot of reviews, they are often fairly sober. However, this product is really great.I typically have problems finding items in decent sizes because I'm single, so I buy extra and freeze it. I believed the NutriChef would lessen freezer burn and prolong storage. That's true, butSince purchasing the sealer, I have discovered several additional uses. Cooking sous vide is excellent. You can make the juiciest chicken ever for dishes like chicken salad by simply heating a skinless chicken breast in a bag at 160° for around 40 minutes. Even though salmon burgers are incredibly delicate, I was able to vacuum seal them without overly flattening them. Once more, sous vide the food to the correct temperature before frying it at a high heat to sear it. Additionally, I can take them to my girlfriend's residence frozen (she loves them...)Meat is aged dry for weeks at a temperature of about 35°. Mine essentially triples the cost of aging. If you do this in your refrigerator, the meat will probably just be rotten. However, you can benefit from maturing without worrying about deterioration in a vacuum-sealed bag.I prepared a good 2-pound dish of mashed carrots with ginger tonight, as well as a significant amount of caramelized onions. Cooking these dishes requires a lot of time. Both of them had a lot of leftover liquid, but the NutriChef sealed them up perfectly, enabling me to make serving-sized bags for the following time. Just so you know, you can rehydrate the pureed carrots with water and purée them into a delectable soup.I'm genuinely astonished by how much I enjoy this. I increased my rating from four to five stars.

Before determining whether FoodSaver would work best for me, I conducted a lot of research. I browsed the reviews here and watched videos on YouTube. The fact that this style is NOT automatic is why I chose it over the most expensive. The more costly models cut the roll for you, wasting a lot of plastic in the process. Cutting the required size only takes a few seconds, but plastic is not inexpensive. Now that my husband and I are "empty nesters," I realized that food was spoiling from freezer burn before my husband and I could eat it. When we had a large family, I became used to shopping in bulk, and now I don't want to pay more money for less food.Numerous reviews that I read lamented the poor performance of the FoodSaver. The majority of these were more costly models. This is the ideal one! Now that our food won't freezer burn, I can keep making large purchases. To prevent the juice from being drawn out, place cooked meat—such as meatballs—in the refrigerator before packaging. Before sealing, I do dab off any residual moisture, such as the juice from the chicken, as this can prevent the package from fully sealing. It worked great when I cleaned the edges and resealed just above the original seal. Amazing save! I've used it about five times, and each time it worked perfectly. Just make sure to let it cool for 20 seconds before sealing. There have been no issues for me.Your food can be cooked inside the bag as well! The ideal pace is low and sluggish! The frozen food will be ready in approximately 30 minutes after being placed in a saucepan of water that has been heated to about 180 degrees. A 4 oz. piece of frozen salmon that I cooked was delectable! I didn't need to use the oven, and it was moist and flaky! Before opening the bag, give the food around five minutes to rest.
Yes, you can vacuum seal raw potatoes. This will keep them fresh for a longer period of time. When vacuum sealing, make sure to remove as much air as possible from the bag to prevent the potatoes from oxidizing.
You don't necessarily have to refrigerate vacuum sealed food, but it will help keep it fresh if you do. Vacuum sealing removes air from around food, which can cause it to spoil more quickly. Refrigerating vacuum sealed food will help slow down this process.
A vacuum sealer is a device that removes air from a sealed container in order to extend its shelf life. Vacuum sealers are used in food storage, medicine, and other situations where maintaining a low-oxygen environment is important. Most vacuum sealers use between 50 and 100 watts of power. Some models are more energy-efficient than others, but all vacuum sealers will use at least a little bit of power. If you're looking to save energy, look for a model that has an automatic shut-off feature.
A vacuum sealer is an appliance that removes air from a sealed container, such as a food storage bag, in order to keep food fresh. Vacuum sealers are available in a variety of sizes and price ranges. How much you spend on a vacuum sealer depends on your budget and how often you plan to use it. If you are an avid cook who loves to experiment with new recipes, you may want to invest in a higher-end model. On the other hand, if you only plan to use your vacuum sealer for occasional food storage, a less expensive model
If you are someone who often cooks in bulk or likes to meal prep, then a vacuum sealer is definitely worth the investment. Not only will it save you money in the long run, but it will also help keep your food fresh for longer. Plus, it's a lot more convenient than using Ziploc bags.
