Please note
► To vacuum seal the foods not frozen, two extra inches are required for bag length to
allow for expansion while freezing. Place the meat or fish on a paper towel and vacuum
seal with the paper towel in the bag, this way will help to absorb moisture from the foods.
► Before storing the foods such as tortillas, crepes or hamburger, use wax or parchment
paper between them to stack the pieces, this will be easier to remove some of the food,
reseal the rest and immediately replace in the freezer.
► The vacuum preservation system can’t be directly used for the vacuum sealing of
canisters or canning jars.
