6. Precautionary Step: Before vacuum sealing powdered goods, it's essential to take an additional precautionary step: place the powdered or ground goods inside a paper bag before inserting them into the vacuum sealer bag. This extra step is crucial to prevent fine powders from being sucked into the vacuum sealer machine, potentially causing damage. Whether you're using textured or flat vacuum sealer bags (precut or rolled), this preparatory step is necessary for all types of fine or powdered goods. Ensure the protection of your vacuum sealer machine by following this simple precautionary measure every time you seal powdered goods.

How to use?

1. Prepare Your Goods: Ensure that the food you're storing is clean, dry, and free from any excess moisture. Mylar bags are best suited for dry goods such as grains, beans, and dehydrated foods.

2. Select the Right Size Bag: Choose a Mylar food storage bag that comfortably fits the amount of food you're sealing. Mylar bags are available in various sizes, so select one that suits your needs.

3. Fill the Bag: Carefully place the dry food items you want to store into the open end of the Mylar bag. Avoid overfilling the bag, as this can interfere with the sealing process.

4. Insert Oxygen Absorbers (Optional): If you're storing food for long-term storage, you may want to add oxygen absorbers to the Mylar bag before sealing. Oxygen absorbers help remove oxygen from the bag, which helps extend the shelf life of the food.

5. Seal the Bag: Once the bag is filled with food, use a heat sealer to seal the open end of the Mylar bag. Place the open end of the bag between the jaws of the heat sealer and press down firmly to create a tight seal. Run the heat sealer along the open end of the bag, applying heat evenly to ensure a secure seal.

6. Prepare the Vacuum Sealer: Set up your vacuum sealing machine according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure that the vacuum chamber is clean and free from any debris.

7. Vacuum Seal the Bag: Place the sealed Mylar bag into the vacuum chamber of the sealing machine, ensuring that the open end is positioned properly for sealing. Close the lid of the machine and activate the vacuum function. The machine will remove the air from the bag, creating a vacuum seal around the food items.

8. Inspect the Seal: After vacuum sealing, visually inspect the seal to ensure it is tight and secure. Gently press on the seal to check for any weak spots or air leaks.

9. Label and Store: Consider labeling the vacuum-sealed Mylar bag with the contents and date of sealing for easy identification later on. Store the sealed bags in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

By following these steps, you can effectively use Mylar food storage bags with a vacuum sealing machine to preserve the freshness and quality of your dry food items for extended periods.
