Preparation Guidelines for Coffee:

When vacuum packaging ground coffee in a FoodSaver Bag, leave coffee in the original bag or place into a regular plastic bag and then place that bag into a FoodSaver Bag

for vacuum packaging. This will prevent grounds from being drawn into the vacuum pump and help guarantee a good seal.

To vacuum package liquids for freezer storage, pre-freeze them first in a cas- serole or loaf pan until they are solid. Remove from the pan and vacuum package in a FoodSaver Bag. These “frozen bricks” stack conveniently in

your freezer and can go right into boiling water or the microwave when you are ready to use them. This same technique can be used for pre-cooked dinners and leftovers.
