ÒVacuum packaging is not a substitute for canning. All perishables still
need to be refrigerated or frozen.
ÒFollow all food safety regulations as outlined by the FDA at www.FDA.gov.
ÒFor optimal performance, VacMaster®vacuum bags, rolls, containers
and accessories.
ÒSome fruits and vegetables may release gases, known as outgassing.
When packaging these fruits and vegetables, outgassing can cause
the vacuum to be gradually lost over time. Blanching or freezing
before vacuum packaging helps prevent this from occurring.
ÒDelicate foods can be frozen prior to packaging to protect them from
getting crushed by the vacuum. If you are packaging fresh meats
without pre-freezing, first dry the meat. Place a folded paper towel
between the meat and the top of bag to help absorb any moisture.
ÒTo vacuum package liquids, pre-freeze in a dish, bowl, or ice cube tray.
ÒUse VacMaster®Bone Guards to cover an item’s sharp edges to
prevent bag punctures.
ÒAllow foods and liquids to cool before vacuum packaging.
ÒAvoid overfilling the bag. Leave at least 3" of space between the
contents and the open end of the bag. This is called headspace. This
allows room for the bag to tightly form around the content and will
prevent the bag from pulling out of the vacuum chamber during the
sealing process.
ÒTo prevent wrinkles from forming in the seal, gently stretch the bag
flat along the seal bar before closing the lid.
ÒWhen using accessories, leave at least 1"of space between the
contents and the top of the container.
ÒUse a clean, damp cloth and mild soap to clean the PRO360.
ÒVacMaster®bags and rolls are boilable, freezable, and microwavable.
When microwaving, it is important to pierce or make a small cut in
the pouch.
