I vacuum bag flour for years. First I freeze the flour for 3-4 days, then I put the four in the fridge for another 2 days to bring the temperature up slowly. So no moisture will build up. Then put it on the table for a few hours, till it’s room temp. Then I break down the 5lb flour to 2.5lb bags. I add the flour to a brown small lunch paper bag. Fold over the ends and add end first into a vacuum bag and seal. Never had a problem. I have about two totes full of flour.
Very interesting. I will try that method. Which chamber vac sealer do you have?
@@CountryLivingExperience that’s the thing, I used a regular food vacuum sealer. I don’t have a vacuum chamber. But I would do the same thing in a vacuum chamber, I will fold the paper bag opening a few times and point it away from where the air is being vacuumed out. You can also put a little tape to just hold the fold while it’s being vacuumed.
We have both sealers as well and use them for different applications.
The Foodsaver is much smaller and lighter, so we keep it on the kitchen counter for quick use. It does a terrible job on wet foods and doesn't work at all on liquids, but it does work well on dry items. We keep flour, corn meal, cereal, etc. in bags, use what we need, and then reseal them.
The chamber sealer weighs a ton and takes up 3x the space, so we keep it on the table with our freeze dryer. It works on wet items like fresh fish and chicken as well as pretty much anything else you want to preserve. I've never tried doing jars in the chamber sealer. Ours is about 5 years old and cost over $500 back then.
The deal with the bags is that they will are extremely strong with regard to weight bearing. You can literally stand on them, but they puncture quite easily, so handling is critical. I have a friend who works at a company that sells cooked foods in vacuum bags. They changed the spec on their bag and were about to dump all their inventory. Needless to say, I'll never need to buy another chamber bag, my children will not, and their children will not. I buy food saver bags on Amazon in different sizes for different applications.
Cool. The chamber vac has truly been a great investment.
You can use paper lunch bags to store flour to the vacuum sealer, fold to the bag and inside (packed) and set in the bottom to the plastic bag and seal it. No flour powder cannot in the tube. Try it and see once; the jars do take place and heavy.
Thank you for your great video. I have had a Vevor chamber vac sealer for at least 3 years and it has worked well. I think it was around $250 at the time, I'm sure it is more now. You can use the dimple bags in a chamber vac, but it is a waste of money as the specific bags for chamber vacs are cheaper. I have both an external and chamber sealer, but for my needs I probably could get away with just the chamber sealer. However, my external unit is good for larger items that won't fit in my chamber unit. I think any vacuum sealer will save you a ton of money in the long run. I buy bulk meats and cheese and split them up and vacuum seal them. I'll take leftover soups and stews and vacuum seal them in individual portions. I'll buy dry goods, like rice, split it up and vacuum seal it in bags. We go through a lot of ricer, but I still don't want to keep 20 pounds of it open in the pantry. If I have items like a half of a avocado or a partial package of bacon I'll seal those and put them back in the fridge. A cut avocado will last for days (or longer) in the fridge if vacuum sealed. Bags for either machine can be bought for much less on the web, including Amazon. They are about 95% as good as the more expensive branded bags (I have had a few bag failures, not many). Even if you are not doing long term storage a vacuum sealer is a wise investment.
I don't have one that expensive, but I DO have a vacuum chamber unit which I paid $248 for it, & it really does a fantastic job in vacuum sealing foods in the bags!! I will never go back to those external units again!! The one that I have DOES allow me to vacuum seal foods that have liquid in the bags! That's what's so great about them. Not into using mason jars to hold foods, but the bags are also dirt cheap, allowing you to get them for pennies on the dollar!! I'm so glad that I made this important step up!! It opens up a whole new world of vacuum sealing foods for me!!
Very cool that you found one that works well for that price. They are such great investments!
Which brand and model is the $248?
Don’t forget the cost of the bags. A bag for the chamber vac is 5 cents, the corrugated bags for the other are about 30 cents each.
Great point!
I dunno. I have a Avid Armor USV32 chamber vacuum sealer and it can seal those textured bags just fine. But that's probably because its design includes a rubber bar that compresses the bag into the heating element for a really tight seal. It practically guarantees that the two sides of the bag fuse together every time.
you can put your flour in a lunch paper bag first, roll it over tight then put in food bag or mylar and then vavuum
I have heard that but I do not want to take the chance. I cannot really afford to get another one of these.
My mother in law has a food-saver vacuum sealer she forgot about. I asked to borrow it when I saw it the other day and told me to keep it! I’m excited
That’s awesome
Nicely done. Always appreciate the detail you put into your videos. Thanks for sharing! 🤠
My pleasure!
Nice to know an alternative to the food saver, thanks!
You're welcome
You're videos are great. Thank u!
Thank you
That's a great vacuum sealer.
Thanks
Outstanding video. Now is time to stack it to the rafters
Thank you
Thanks for the information!
You bet!
Your videos are top notch. Thanks you. Missed seeing the Border Collie running in the back ground on this one though.
Thank you so much.
You will see him on the video this coming Sunday...lol
@@CountryLivingExperience lol. My Aussie runs laps around the chicken runs for hours!
Great informative video. I watched another of yours where you used mason jars and put them in the oven. How would you compare that with the vacuum sealing methods?
Thank you. I would say this is easier. Since I froze the flour and rice first, that got rid of any bugs, larvae, or eggs. After that, just pop it in the bags and vacuum seal.
Could you vacuum seal flour In a jar in there like you did the chickpeas, which or still advise against it?
No. I would steer clear of that as well.
I've gotten mixed information on the oxygen absorbers. I know that they need to stay sealed until I use them but I've been told by some websites that they will go bad and become unuseable after leaving them in their sealed packets after around a year so that I'm forced to buy NEW ones every year. What do you think?
They should be good for a long time in their sealed package. Mine last for a long time when sealed.
Why did you not use oxygen absorbers?
I explained that. There is not enough oxygen left to be harmful or degrading.
