How To Marinate Foods
The marinate mode, offers two options. Quick Marinate Mode (15 minutes) and Normal
Marinate Mode (27 minutes). In the marinate mode, the machine can run two cycles
of vacuuming and releasing air to the canister, allowing foods to get optimum pickle
infusion in the least amount of time. Vacuum status is active for about 4 minutes (Quick
Marinate Mode), 8 minutes (Normal Marinate Mode) . When marinate is complete, the
machine will beep.
Vacuum canister is ideal for marinating foods. The reason that foods can be
marinated in such a short time is that, it opens the micro-holes of the foods, allowing
pickle infusion very quickly.
IMPORTANT TIPS:
when using a canister for marinating, there should be a knob on the
canister lid. Make sure the canister lid is in “Open” status, NOT “Vacuum” status when in
the marinate process.
1. Put items in the canister. Make sure there is no powder or food debris on the
canister lid gasket. Also allow some space on the top (after the items are put into
the canister). And then close the lid.
2. Turn the knob to “Open” position.
3. Connect the hose to the Accessory port on the machine and to the port on the
canister lid.
4. Press the “Marinate” button, choose the “Marinate option”.
Press once for “Quick Marinate” Mode, “1” will appear on the digital display.
Press twice for “Normal Marinate” Mode, “2” will appear on the digital display.
** In Quick Marinate Mode, the cycle is about 15 minutes.
** In Normal Marinate Mode, the cycle is about 27 minutes longer.
5. Press the “Start” button (or the quick-start button on the handle) slightly press the
canister lid for 3-5 seconds. When it reaches the correct pressure, the machine will
stop automatically. Value on the Digital display will count down from 5 to 1,
(count down cycle repeats continually). After 4 minutes (Quick Marinate Mode) or
8 minutes (Normal Marinate Mode), the machine display stops counting, and
vacuum sealing is complete.
6. When vacuum sealing is complete; the canister starts to release air. The value on
the
digital display will count up from 1 to 5. After 30 seconds, it stops counting,
releasing air cycle is completed.
7. The machine vacuums the canister again. The above mentioned cycle will run
two times.
8. When the marinate process is complete, 0 will appear on the digital display and
illuminate, then the machine will beep. Turn the canister knob to “Lock” position,
remove the hose from canister. The vacuum process is complete.
** Press the “On / Off” button to start and stop the machine.

Canister Guidelines
- Use only canisters designed for vacuum packaging. Other containers can implode
under the vacuum pressure of a Vacuum Sealer.
- Cool liquids in refrigerator before vacuum packaging. Hot foods should be cooled
before vacuum packaging.
-
Do not freeze vacuum canister. Suggested lowest temperature is -18 degrees.
- Too low (lower than -18 degrees) or too high (higher than 100 degrees) temperature
will make the canister materials endure lower pressure or melt.
- Hand wash canister lid. Do not put in dishwasher or microwave. The canister
body is dishwasher safe and microwave safe. Suggested highest temperature
is 100 degrees.
- If liquids are caught in the accessory hose, run warm water through hose. Be sure
hose is not attached to accessory port.
- Powdered or granulated foods should be covered with a paper towel before
vacuuming to prevent food from traveling into the vacuum mechanism.
- Vacuum packaging is not a substitute for canning. Perishable foods still need to be
refrigerated or frozen.
