    I thought as long as dry food was vacuumed sealed (Food Saver Clear Plastic Bag), below 70°F & the dark (basement), my food would last for years, you just saved me some money & heartache, time to get mylar & some glass... Thanks, Brian, I'm learning a lot!

    one correction... the aluminum layer is the middle layer of each pouch side. The aluminum DOES NOT touch the food. The layers are Mylar/Aluminum/Polyethylene. So the only thing that touches the food is the inner polyethylene layer which is the same as typical ziploc sandwich bags.

      Yes, I am totally new to this, and just trying to learn some before I really start. This video helps tremendously, as I had not thought of, that people are selling fraudulent "mylar" bags, though I should have, as everything that some people can make a buck off of, some will sell fraudulently. He tells so much in this video, that all need to watch it.

    Great video. I made the mistake of buying ‘gusseted ‘mylar’ bags’ from the giant online buy anything store… lol they were garbage…. Tried to vacuumed seal some freeze dried brain/liver/kidney treats for my dogs and they filled with air (even with oxygen absorbers) after about 15 minutes. They have a really dumb ‘cut’ in a spot that shouldn’t affect the bag, but that’s the only thing I can think of. They kind of look like someone used a hole punch that was half dull and left half circle cuts in the sealed bottom of the bag on each side. I dont know what they could possibly add to the design of the bag but I won’t make that mistake again. They were the bags that are shiny on the back and clear on front. I thought it would be better for short term storage on the treats so i could quickly tell what they were without having to label the bags….

    We purchased a freeze drier after watching some of your videos (not the only reason, but they were very educational!). I have had success with fruit, herbs, sauces, and soups but seem to have an issue with anything meat related. We have tried chili, bolognese, venison stew, and a pork recipe and everything comes out tasting and smelling rancid. We store them in mylar with an oxygen absorber and the meal appeared 100% and super light weight when we packaged them. I dont see many others with this complaint so I absolutely must be doing something wrong. If you or your community have any tips so I dont end up wasting food, that would be so appreciated!

    • @thefreezedryingcommunity

      weigh at the end of cycle and note the weight. Add 3-4 hours more dry time and weigh again. If the weight is less, add more time. Keep repeating this cycle until there is no change in weight. This will ensure the food is complete. I would also be aware of the amount of fats, butter, oils etc. that you are adding to your recipes. oils, fats and sugar will not freeze dry

      That's not normal. I just finished eating a jar of them myself tonight. They were from 3 yrs ago, and were hard and crunchy, yum. You might have gotten some moisture in your bag at some time. You also have to make sure there is no moisture left in them when you take them out of the machine. It helps to have a little moisture meter, too.

      @startupadmin540 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @2farms I had the same thing happen to apple chips I bought from Costco. I took the large bag and broke it down into individual serving sized bags and vacuum sealed the bags. A few months later the apples were soft and appeared to have pinhead sized white speckles which I assume was a type of mold or bacteria, I’m not sure. I nervously took a risk and tasted them, they tasted fine but they had softened more like a dehydrated apple than a freeze dried crisp chip like they were before. I’m trying to determine if I should attempt to dehydrate them or throw them out. I feel I’m still inexperienced when it comes to food storage and am not really sure of what is safe to repackage or what signs indicate the food has become unsafe to consume. I know the LDS Cannery sells #10 cans of apple chips for long term storage, so I know it’s not the product but rather my packaging method that failed with the apple chips. You can buy food grade desiccant packs to help keep the food dry in addition to oxygen absorbers but personally I’m more concerned about food safety and I can’t seem to find clear information on what dangers to look out for. I especially don’t want to go to the effort and expense just to have it all go to waste.
      As a side note, I purchased the mason jar attachment for my vacuum sealer and used it to dry can several types of products a few years ago and had recently opened a jar of Biscoff cookies I repackaged back in 2019, they were as crisp and fresh as the day I put them in the jar. So that may be an option to consider as part of your food preservation methods. Best wishes 😊

      There are 2 layers: Mylar (clear) and metal layer. The metal layer can get pinholes but does not mean the Mylar (clear part) is compromised. Mylar is one of the most flexible, durable and tough stuff known to man. A tiny amount of light is not going to ruin your food and it would still not be allowing oxygen. Hope this helps

      The aluminum does not heat seal, so the mylar is the lining of the bag to allow it to be heat sealed. The food is not in contact with the metal, it’s in contact with the mylar.

    • @thefreezedryingcommunity
      @thefreezedryingcommunity  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I actually prefer Mason jar storage, however, there a few things that make them not as ideal for long term storage. In a jar, the seal can become weak or loose over time. The clear jars also allow light in and will fade and deteriote the food. If you can eliminate those factors, it's a superior form of storage. It just takes a little more maintenance

    For very long term, #10 cans are probably the most practical and effective at protecting the food. I wonder if your channel, being a dedicated freeze drying channel that often talks about long term storage, will ever get into this? It might get a little strange if you never cover this aspect of freeze drying.

      For my situation, #10 cans are not practical. Freeze dried food, once opened needs to be rehydrated or used somewhat quickly in most cases. I see the use for #10 cans in some scenarios, but for most things, I don't see using them for freeze dried food.

      @@thefreezedryingcommunity Thank you. My point is that the industry doesn't consider mylar bags as a realistic option for 25 years or longer so if one is going to say 25 years or longer, #10 cans should probably be mentioned in this regard.

    Does the aluminum foil touch the food at all? This is a very important question because aluminum is a type of metal that leaches into the food it comes in contact with. And the bad part is, it crosses the blood brain barrier and wreaks havoc with your brain. Would you please research this and get back to me.
