Keeping Your Food Air Tight With a Vacuum Sealer

Reynolds has been known for years as one of the most respected brands of food storage products. One of the most effective products offered by Reynolds is the Reynolds vacuum sealer, the Handi-Vac. This product helps foods to stay fresh and extends the amount of time you can safely store foods. The best thing about the Handi-Vac is that the vacuum sealer is easy to handle as well.

The Handi-Vac vacuum sealer is a system that revolutionizes the manner in which people use vacuum sealers. Instead of having to bring the food to a bulky countertop sealer, the user can just take the Handi-Vac vacuum sealer and apply it to a Handi-Vac freezer bag. The Handi-Vac is used to create heat in order to seal the bag securely and also remove the air from the bag.

An air valve in the Handi-Vac vacuum sealer removes the air which would otherwise be trapped in the sealed area of the bag. As a result, freezer burn will be nonexistent and the food will stay fresh longer.

The method that is employed for sealing in freshness with the vacuum sealer is simple. First, the vacuum sealer bag is filled. Next, the bag is laid horizontally on a surface and checked to make sure that no contents are over the maximum fill line on the Handi-Vac bag. Next, the sealer tip is put flush against the air valve and the “on” button is pushed. When the bag is sealed close around the food, the device is shut off and the food is placed directly into the freezer.

One of the attractive features of the Handi-Vac vacuum sealer is that it does not cost as much as other vacuum sealers. The Handi-Vac costs around ten dollars at many stores. What’s more, the sealer works in less time than bigger sealers. It can take seconds to work its magic on a typical gallon sized bag.

Bags for the Handi-Vac sealer may also be easily purchased at retailers where the Handi-Vac sealer can be bought. The bags usually run around $3.29 for a set of fourteen quart bags or nine gallon bags.

It should also be noted that Handi-Vac bags can be resealed if you don’t use all the contents at once. However, they should not be used again after all of the food has been removed on account of the bag cannot be cleaned. The bags are made with no Teflon or PTFE materials, nor are any allergens in these bags. The bags also have kosher certification.

The Reynolds Handi-Vac vacuum sealer is a great food storage method to use in the kitchen. The Handi-Vac vacuum sealer is affordable and is effortless to use. This Reynolds product can be purchased at most department stores in addition to the replacement bags which go with it.
