HOW TO VACUUM SEAL DELICATE OR MOIST FOODS

Sealing Delicate Foods:

To seal delicate foods such as muffins or pastries, you have the option to bypass the auto-seal function. Simply press the Vacuum Button immdeiately followed by the Seal Button and the vacuum pump will stop as the bag is sealed. This will prevent soft foods from being crushed.

Hint: For best results freeze foods that are soft, such as muffins, cakes and pies etc. so they maintain their shape when vacuum sealed.

Sealing Moist Foods:

When sealing moist foods, such as sauces or stews, you have the option to instantly seal the bag and bypass the auto-seal function if you see any liquid being drawn from the bag or whenever you believe the process is complete. Simply press the Vacuum Button immediately followed by the Seal Button and the vacuum pump will stop as the bag is sealed.

Hint: For best results liquids should be frozen prior to vacuum sealing. Remove excess juices before sealing whenever possible.

HOW TO SEAL BAGS WITHOUT VACUUMING
