    Very important/necessary information: Different systems pull different levels of vacuum. Brake bleeder pumps, on average, pull from around 17 to 22" Hg. Not a very good vacuum. You want something that pulls around 28" Hg or more. This is what the commercial vacuum sealers typically pull. (As well as 2 stage vacuum pumps that start at around $100 US or so). Allegedly, the Pump N'Seal pump pulls a surprising 28.9" of Hg. That is beyond adequate. Btw, your average Food Saver system is like the brake bleeder pumps. Very few of them go beyond 24" Hg or so. I have a Weston commercial vacuum sealer (ALWAYS used _foil lined_ bags for maximum gas blocking) and a Pump N' Seal system to cover all and any needs I have. But if I had to recommend one and only one, it would be the Pump N' Seal, because it is the most affordable (and reliable!), at around 30 dollars. It doesn't work well for bags, not even their special bags, but it is awesome for glass jars. (And you can use the Food Saver and F.S. like attachments with the P.N.S. system and forego the pin/hole and check tabs, at least for standard sized mason jars [regular and wide mouth ones]). Anyways, point is that _not all vacuums are created equal._ A low-medium vacuum (brake bleeders, most Food Saver and Food Saver like in store vacuum sealers, etc) will *_not_* preserve near as well as a medium and medium-high vacuum (2 stage vacuum pumps, commercial grade food sealers, Pump N' Seal, etc).

  • @justinw1765
    @justinw1765 Před 2 dny

    With the Pump N' Seal, if you're using standard size mason jars (whether regular or wide mouth), you don't need to poke a hole and add a check tab, _if_ you have the Food Saver or similar lid attachments, you can put the pump directly over the hole on the top of these.

    As seniors, it didn't make sense to me to have items with a 25-30 year shelf life. Not much point in having foods that will outlive us! Better for us to limit our storage to no more than 5 years shelf life & just keep rotating. And after Prince Charming's heart attack 2 years ago that required quite a few dietary changes, we thankfully didn't have a huge supply of foods to get rid of in favor of more heart healthy options.

    Great advice! I use powdered milk quite a bit for cooking. I don't have a freezer, and the apartment I live in is not large enough for me to have one, so freezer space is really not an option for me. Storing and rotating powdered milk is though, so that is the route I go. When I first started doing this, I was surprised at how quickly I went through the milk. Thanks for always sharing tips that help to keep us safe!!

    There's also shelf stable liquid milk in aseptic cartons (they look like giant juice boxes with a screw top lid). They're UHT pasturized at a very high temperature. They keep for a really long time (check the date on the container) and you just use them like regular milk. We keep a bunch in our pantry because our kid is lactose intolerant and we can get lactose free shelf stable milk. It also doubles as the backup liquid milk for my spouse that likes milk in his tea or coffee. They sell regular (not lactose free) milk in the cartons as well. Some people say the milk will last for 2 or 3 days at room temp after it has been opened, but I've never tried that.
