Vacuum Sealing a Canning Jar with a Commercial Chamber Unit

PMG's Thom Dolder vacuumpacker.com explains how to use a chamber style vacuum sealer to seal jars.

[@seanbrady3619]

Very good presentation thank you. I like how you show each of the steps and explain them clearly.

[@jamescc2010]

What are main benefits of vacuuming jars? Can you do this with sauce jars after canning? I am thinking of doing this for chili sauce, stir fry sauce type of canning. Thanks

@007Augman Always cool products completely before vacuum packing. This protects the pump from moisture collecting and causing long term water damage. The vacuum will be superior as the sensors will not be disrupted with moisture in the chamber while removing the air. Also this protects from any bacteria growing in the jar before it gets to the canner. This process does not eliminate the absolute need for hot bath canning with sauces!! Vacuum packing in jars is not canning!

[@Ateneogastronomico]

Great tip! I now and understand that "vacuum packing in jars is not canning". But i think you can use this method for a combination of sous vide and canning. Do you think is possible?

[@GentlemanJamesWin]

So does this only work with those 2 part lids? Would it work with a normal 1 part lid?

[@Hetzish]

Great video. Can it be done with flour or milk powder too? Or will it be sucked into met vacuum machine? If not, why not? Thank you!

[@rsilvers129]

You can do this with wine-bottle vacuum corks also.

[@Baseballisbest67]

Hands down which vac sealer would you get TODAY if it was fir a big family or community to use ??

[@pixelated80]

what is the difference between vacuum sealing and canning/retort?

[@papimoses7250]

Is it effective for cooked food like a soup? Or its for dry food. I wanna do canning that's why i ask maybe funny question to some

[@seaninthecity6034]

Hey what about powders like flour, sugar, or whey? Any issues? Also what’s the tallest mason jar that’ll fit

[@FrontierMedia]

@leesaun641 Love this process with dehydrated foods or nuts and grains. So fast!

[@FrontierMedia]

@Ateneogastronomico Worth a try, let us know how it goes.

[@grgacvarak]

..hi..can you make video about the same device BUT which one is on GAS?Thank you.

[@007Augman]

If I use this machine for sauce canning.Does the sauce have to be hot or do I wait for it to cool off before I put it in the chamber????

[@anthonykenny2631]

We can only lie the jars down in the vacuum chamber would it still work?

[@FrontierMedia]

Most uses for using jars in a vacuum sealer are for dehydrated foods, veggies, fruit, nuts, grains, poweder milk, sugar you get the point. Not sure what you mean by vacuum sealing after canning as canning will create its own vacuum seal. Maybe we should talk. 1-800-227-3769

[@kannabistop9596]

What canning method creates an air tight?🤔

[@robertocucalon4676]

Will this sealer work with other type of jars, that are not mason type?

[@robanddawnramcharan6408]

The MiniPack MVS-45X lists for $3,650.00 on your web site. Which is not much help if you're a commercial operation. Looks like it might work, though.

@SpottedHyenaStudios Thanks

[@chinoboxx]

Where can I buy it?

[@woobieweibel]

I saw in one of your other videos about the VacMaster VP210c, and I was wondering if you can do this with that machine and what size jars does it accomodate since the chamber is so small? I also saw the "udder sucker" attachment on another video, would that would on the VP210/215 models as well?

[@76aireen]

What kind and size of this machine? I need a machine that 1 pint of mason jars will fit? Thank you!

[@KDamatrix]

Can you lie a jar sideways ( if too tall for the chamber) if filled with dry goods and still get a seal? I don't see why not...thank you

[@stevetth86]

Hi, Does this method work for liquids as well? E.g. Sauces, Paste or Jam? Do they need to be cooled?

[@PickledAndFermented]

Steve Tan no answers? I want to k ow too...

[@topemeister3000]

Yes. it works for liquids too. They definitely have to be cooled first.

[@Papillon_2010]

@@topemeister3000 I just found this out the hard way! Put in hot strawberry preserves. Not good. Now it is cooling. Will seal later. I have the Vacmaster 215 and I love it!!!

[@topemeister3000]

@@Papillon_2010 Uh oh! Glad to hear that you're enjoying it. I'll add the 215 to my potential list for when I eventually get my own!

[@woobieweibel]

oops! It should have read, "would that work on the VP210/215 models as well?" Sorry about that

[@lifeandlarder2309]

How do you estimate the life of foods stored in this method. Eg, i want to make turkey stuffing mix and seal it? I have a small food business, cottage size!

[@michaelnguyen1085]

How long will BBQ last for?

[@crimsonmcknight635]

Can it be used for pickled eggs, and how much does it cost?

[@tribulationprepper787]

IT CAN BE USED TO quickly euthanize household pests.

[@kannabistop9596]

Can this be done with 3.5g Jars?🤔

[@seaninthecity6034]

Also, why not make a square top so you can fit more jars?

[@mcdouche2]

The same reason there are not square windows on airplanes. Corners make stress risers that can cause failure.

[@FrontierMedia]

@sweetvibesdotcom Use mason "canning" jar lids brand is not important.

[@FrontierMedia]

We have vacuum sealers from $50.00 to $50,000.00 where do you want to be? At which time they move to Roll Stock units and then they get expensive. LOL
