•Make sure the rubber gasket on the canister lid is free from food materials, crumbs, coffee grinds, etc.
•Make sure the rim of the canister does not have any cracks or scratches. Any gaps can prevent a vacuum from forming.
•Make sure you aren’t filling the canister too full prior to vacuum packaging. Always leave at least 7.5cm between the contents and the lid.
