Seal Canning Jars with your VacUpack.
Tips to remember!
Vacuum sealing in jars does not kill bacteria in wet products! Vacuum pressure sealing is used for preserving dry or dehydrated products!
Vacuum pressure sealing in canning jars "does not" replace hot bath pressure canning!!!!!
Use canning jars only! The home canning jars design is safe to be used under pressure. Jars that are not specifically designed for canning may break under the vacuum pressure and can be dangerous. Well known brands include Ball, Mason, Kerr easily found online or in your local grocery store or hardware store, under home canning supplies.
Use the canning lids with red rubber gaskets for best results. Any brand may work but we have found the red gaskets work better than the gray gaskets.
Check for any chips or cracks in the glass and discard any damaged jars. Do not use damaged jars for vacuum sealing.
Vacuum sealing in jars is not canning! Canning requires heat to kill harmful bacteria. Vacuum sealing does not kill harmful bacteria. Do not put fresh produce or meats in a vacuum-sealed jar without refrigeration or freezing. Vacuum sealing in jars does not change how your food is stored. Vacuum sealing in canning jars is great for dry products stored on shelves. Products such as dehydrated fruit or vegetables, nuts, grains, cookies, crackers and other similar products already stored in pantries or cupboards. Vacuum sealing in jars is also good for grated cheeses, block cheese, soups, stew, sauces, and fresh fruit, stored in the refrigerator or freezer. Do not change where you normally store your food when vacuum sealing. Food items in your refrigerator stay in the fridge, freezer items stay frozen, cupboard items remain in cupboards. Vacuum packing extends the quality of these products for your extended use. It does not change the way they are to be properly safely stored. Changing the storage location of products can produce very harmful even fatal bacteria called botulism.
Freezing foods in vacuum-sealed freezer jars. Use only canning jars that are especially designed for freezing. The same canning jar companies manufacture these jars. Freezer safe canning jars are straight sided, designed for use in freezers.
When removing the canning lid from the jar be sure to not bend or twist the lid. Careful removal of the lid will allow the lid to be reused many times before needing to be replaced.
Be safe and clean with your equipment. Vacuum sealing is not preservation it is storage. Carefully wash all lids and jars between uses to prevent the spread of mold or bacteria.

About the machine and why a VacUpack goes hand in hand with Canning for storage!
THE PUMP: The housing is heavy-duty injection-molded ABS. The vacuum pump produces up to 25 HG (inches of mercury on a vacuum gauge). It's nylon piston construction reduces friction, requires no lubrication and is not susceptible to corrosion or moisture. The piston pump is less likely to fail than the more complex diaphragm-type and evacuates a higher volume of air. The other big difference between this and the channel/diaphragm is this one is designed to pump liquid, which may simply be washed out by pumping water into the machine over the sink. This will simply break the national brand name machines.
The VacUpack is the only home style vacuum packer that will allow you to fully disinfect and clean the pump.
Notice in the videos or pictures of other vacuum packer/sealers the demonstrators will never show you a bag with "Water" or any wet material being pulled out of the bag and into the machine. Why? Because wet, water, juice, slim, blood, sauce, soup, ect will burn out the pump. The demonstrator or "actor" in the video will only show you dry, smoked, solid products to vacuum. Yet all external models (bag is outside the machine) will draw air and then liquid as atmospheric pressure pushes on the outside of the bag. The bigger the pump, the faster the water will flow out of the bag, the harder it is to stop and control. There is no way to get away from water being pulled from the bag, unless you live on the MOON! As you are looking for a machine keep this tip in your thoughts, we feel this is pretty interesting. It is not uncommon to see this very important piece of information not being demonstrated to you. The true fact is about 80% of the vacuum packing you are going to do is very wet! There is alot of hype behind these products, that is all in the course of sales. But what they don't tell you is what you need to be looking for. Our video shows you exactly how to seal a wet bag and how to clean the machine with out any worry!
THE HEAT BAR: The sealing time is adjustable. A solid steel heat bar with commercial grade nylon heat tape. This heat bar allows for mutiple heat cycles to ensure that the wet sloppy bag is sealed completly 100% of the time "no leaky wet bags". We believe this is the absolute finest and most durable heat bar manufactured in a home style unit.
CUTTING BLADE & BAG STORAGE: It has a one-way cutting blade for quickly making custom sized and sealed bags via it’s self-contained bag roll storage compartment.
OPERATING FUNCTIONS: A dual-action operating lever controls the vacuum and sealing operation. Just one lever, no complex buttons this leaves you in control! The vacuum indicator gauge allows you to draw a minimum or maximum vacuum. Stop and seal at any time! Don't smash your bread or pack it as tight as you like, you choose! It vacuums and seals a 11.5 by 16-inch bag in less than 30 seconds. Seals 25-35 or as much as 65 small bags before a cooling off period is needed. Beware of machines that may cost less but only seal 1-5 bags before they must be cooled down!
WEIGHT & SIZE:The vacuum sealer weighs 9 pounds, is 19 inches long, 4.5 inches high and is 6.5 inches deep.
BAGS: We are currently offering the NEW 4 mil VacUpack Rolls, bags but as you read earlier you may use many brands. Bag material is made of PET, a low density polyethylene and nylon. This multi-layer laminate material is impervious to odor penetration and is bug proof. Bags are freezable, boilable, microwavable, washable, reusable and provide full food visibility.
The VacUpack is compatable with most brands of textured vacuum sealing materials, it is bag friendly, and functions perfectly from one brand to another. Never get stuck buying one brand of bags. The VacUpack will draw a vacuum and seal Foodsaver, Deni, Rival, Vacstrip, Prego or many other brands of bags. The VacUpack has offered this feature for 25 years. This is one of the many reasons this sealer beats other home style vacuum sealers hands down!!
The Vacupack sells for $325.99 MSRP included in the unit, large jar sealer with hose, 3 rolls, one 6"x20' one 8"x20' and one 11.5"x20' and instruction manual.

HI:
Just wanted to let you know that my VacUPack sealer arrived Friday, 10/24/08.
I spent a few satisfying minutes this afternoon, repackaging pork chops that we were forced to store in zip-loc bags after our FoodSaver refused to perform after the first bag. Unfortunately, this was the 4th FoodSaver machine we have purchased that failed to perform adequately. I have totally turned my back on this brand of vacuum sealer.
The good news is that we will no longer be wasting hard-earned money on replacements, now that we have the VacUPack.
This machine may be considered 'old school' because it lacks fancy circuit boards and electronic chips, but my experience has taught me that these 'improvements' are totally unnecessary. Your machine rocks!
