How To Vacuum Package Using the FoodSaver

Jar Sealer with Mason Jars

The Vac 1050 used with the FoodSaver Jar Sealer allows you to vacuum package food in mason jars. There are two sizes of jar sealers: the FoodSaver Wide-Mouth Jar Sealer for wide-mouth mason jars, and the FoodSaver Regular Jar Sealer for regular and standard-mouth mason jars. If you wish to store mason jars in the freezer, make sure to use tapered and tempered freezer-safe mason jars and leave extra space between the contents and the lid to allow for the normal expansion of liquids.

NOTE: Always pre-soak new metal lids. Bring water to a boil, then turn off. Pre-soak lids 5-10 minutes.

1Place the Vac 1050 on a flat, dry surface and plug the power cord into a standard electrical outlet.

2Place the item(s) to be vacuum packaged inside the mason jar. Leave at least one inch between the contents and the rim of the jar.

3Place the mason jar lid on the top of the mason jar. (You will not need the screw band section of the mason jar lid. It is not used when vacuum packaging.)

7Lock the lid by pulling the locks forward on both sides until they

snap into place. (You may need to press down lightly on the stars while pulling the locks forward.)

8Press and release the On button.

The lights will turn on in sequence as the Vac 1050 starts the vacuum cycle and air is removed from the Mason Jar. The sound will stop and the lights will turn off when vacuum packaging is complete.

9Gently pull up on the jar sealer to remove it. The metal lid should fit tightly on the jar; you should not be able to pull it off.

10Vacuum packaging is complete.

IMPORTANT: Remember to remove the accessory hose from the accessory port on the Vac 1050 before you vacuum package in FoodSaver Bags.

How to Open the Mason Jar

To open the mason jar, wedge a spoon between the mason jar lid and the highest part of the threaded rim. Twist the spoon gently to release the vacuum. When opened this way, the mason jar lid can be reused many times.

IMPORTANT: To avoid accidents, do not use a knife to remove the mason jar lid. Also, do not use a bottle opener to remove the mason jar lid as it will bend the lid and prevent its reuse. Vacuum packaging with the Vac 1050 is not a substitute for canning.
