You're a good man and people should tell you that every day

Hi, for O2 absorber storage, I would vacuum seal them in the same bag they came with or I'd use a new vacuum sealer bag. If you have a lot of O2 absorbers, reseal them into smaller bags. That way, you use only what you need without affecting the entire batch.

[@ChefPrepper]

Great ideas! Will have to consider doing that the next time.

Educational and informative. Thanks for breaking down so we can better understand what and what not to do. Food safety should always be top priority.

Glad it was helpful!

[@user-hx4hc4wf9j]

I have used all those methods

[@timbeaty854]

What about silica absorbers? Could you use silica and 02 absorbers? I store all of my food in 1 quart mylar bags. I don't want to open anything before I really need it. I'm referring to rice, dried beans and pasta for dry storage. Mention anything else that could be used in this method. All of the mylar bags go into 5 gallon buckets.

[@user-hx4hc4wf9j]

You are awesome with info…thx 👍🏼

[@ChefPrepper]

Thank you.

Rigth?

i ordered a pkg of dried clams from asian store, want to break it down into 4oz/8oz jars, have no clue where to begin, same thing w large pkg of "dehydrated strawberries"

[@ChefPrepper]

Those probably should be stored with Silica dessicant moisture absorber. They are probably not dry enough to store with O2 absorbers. Hope this helps.

[@christinajacobsen80]

Are you able to store grits with an oxygen absorber?

[@leighniece4482]

Any idea if hand warmers will work as well? When they are activated they must have oxygen. To shut them down you just put them in a plastic bag.

[@ChefPrepper]

They do work by reacting with oxygen, but I think they are more "chemically" inclined than O2 absorbers. They may have stuff that isn't good for food in them. The heat they generate might cause some condensation? Not sure. I think I would stick with O2 absorbers. Hope this helps.

[@Chainsaw2373]

What about also using desiccant for storage to remove moisture?

[@ChefPrepper]

Those are good for dehydrated and dried foods like dried fruits and similar type foods. But, if moisture is a problem or might be a problem, the food shouldn't be stored with O2 absorbers or vacuum sealing. Hope this helps.

[@Chainsaw2373]

@@ChefPrepper Thank you for your answer and clarification 👍🏻.
