So glad you like it. Yes, that's what I use mine for too. Peppercorns? Yes! Most seasonings using 1/2 pint jars. It's very useful. Thanks for watching.
Received mine a few days ago, and once I was able to separate the two sections (really tough at first), I found it very convenient. I am enjoying it. Thanks for the video.
I also had a lot of trouble separating them but was able to do it finally. My problem now is I can only get it to turn half way when trying to lock it again. Did you have any trouble with this?
@@101jodyI use those round rubber grippy things you buy to open regular jars. I found them hanging on an aisle at the grocery store. So far they have been working pretty good for. On my weaker days!! I will get the husband to pitch in.
So to make sure that you get a good, secure seal, put one marshmallow in each jar that you are vacuuming sealing😂 i'm just kidding, because I'm new to Canning. Thank you for your video.
I just got this and using it to seal jars of powdered items like flour. But I notice I'm getting a small amount of powder inside the sealer device. How do you clean it? I tried to wipe it out with a paper towel sprayed lightly with white vinegar but it's not getting the powder out of the crevices. Very helpful video. Thank you.
Sorry it took me so long to reply, I wanted to use it to make sure the seals are good and they are!! What's it, a year? And going strong. Thanks for watching.
I still don't have a good idea of when to stop. How do you know when it has stopped taking air out of the jar? Also in a different video it said NOT to put the ring on the jar once you've vacuumed the jar. Any thoughts on that?
These vacuum sealers are ok for a short term, but the seal will fail after a short time. They just don't have a strong enough vacuum motor to really seal good. If you can pop the lid off by using your fingers it's not a good seal.
I've been trying to find an answer to my question, through other means and no one seems to want to reply.... Can you please tell me if these style of vacuum jar sealers, have to use the lids provided or can I use any Mason Jar Lids from other stores? Thank you
Yes, you can use any canning lid. It has to have the seal and fit properly, but other than that, you can use an off brand lid and ring. Thanks for watching.
WOW!! I've never seen this before! I use a vacuum sealer with my Food saver and also the small portable one, but this looks so interesting!
I have the attachment for the Food Saver and I think this one works better. Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for these instructions. I have so much more counter space now
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Just received and used mine for the first time. Super nice product. I made an all around seasoning and I wanted to keep it fresh. Easy to use.

You're welcome. Thanks for watching.

@@101jody No I haven't. Have you tried turning it 180° and trying again? Also, does it seal the smaller lids only halfway tightened?

@@9aspengold5 thank you! I'm not familiar with those, I'll look for one. 😊

Neat, but what's on the display? Looks like random lines lighting up.
It counts the seconds of operation. I go to about 20. The video frequency caused the weirdness. Thanks for watching.
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH !!!
You're welcome!
Thank you!

Do you have canned air for cleaning keyboards? That should do the trick. Thanks for watching
@@DaveCooksBiz Yes I do. I tried it and it worked great. Thank!
I used a. non brand and it works Good, But it must be clean for the connection of the lid to get the correct suction!
I think so too.
Awesome video. In your experience how long has the seal lasted?
Sorry it took me so long to reply, I wanted to use it to make sure the seals are good and they are!! What's it, a year? And going strong. Thanks for watching.
I want to do prepping do I need to use an oxygen absorber too. Want my dry items to last for years
I use them for powders. Affiliate link to the ones I use. amzn.to/4aULKAO
Hey can i screen shot your vedio for my website for thus product
Yes, with link to video.
I still don't have a good idea of when to stop. How do you know when it has stopped taking air out of the jar? Also in a different video it said NOT to put the ring on the jar once you've vacuumed the jar. Any thoughts on that?
I usually stop it at 20 seconds or so. I like to put the ring on finger tight to ensure a good seal. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much. Time to have some fun 😊
Ty for sharing I am new to this do you ket it rub til it cuts off
No you have to turn it off. Thanks for watching.
DO YOU HAVE TO USE MASON JARS?
It's made for that style of jar.
Can you use this instead of water bath? Or is this just for dry goods?
It's not canning, it's mostly just removing the air and sealing real tight. Thanks for watching.
@@DaveCooksBizWhat about pickling stuff
@@HudsonCormier lacto fermenting would create pressure and break the seal. Thanks for watching.
Charging it ..need how to
There is a USBc port on top.
Then, where can I go to get a preservation system for mason jars?
I use a pressure canner like this one. amzn.to/3U1PWZR
Can I use it to seal a mason jar to store fruit and veggies in the frig so they will last longer?
Not really. This doesn't preserve or can the ingredients. It simply removes the air. I think it helps dry goods last longer. Thanks for watching.
Should thus fit wide mouth 60 oz jars u can't find one to seal larger jars?
MOUTH SIZES
Regular Mouth 2.75 in / 7 cm
Wide Mouth 3.38 in / 8.6 cm
So as long as the lid is sealed it’s fine, you don’t need to worry if it reads out 88%? Do I keep doing it till it gets to 100%?
Never mind I just figured out that is the battery charge🤪
Yes. Thanks for watching.
I cannot unlock the unit to use the wide mouth size. Out of the box, it's in the locked position. Is there some trick to getting it to turn? 😢
I made a video just for you! ruclips.net/video/0LGrQDq_0TE/видео.html

I've had seals remain for months. Sorry that you have had trouble.
Really? Cause I have a few sealed that are years old...
What does the prevent mean?
I'm not sure what you mean.
Can you re use the lids?
Yes!
Does it only work on mason jars can you use it on different jar lids
No, not really. It works on the common size and wide mouth size but I think it's only for mason style jars and lids. Thanks for watching!
Successfully resealed the "better than bouillon" jars, they are small and perfect for spices, use the regular size lid
Do you run til cuts off😮
No you have to turn it off. Thanks for watching.

@DaveCooksBiz Thank you for replying and producing 'how to' videos for those needing a visual learning tool. Much appreciated 👏 💐
@@jean-63 My pleasure. Thanks for watching.
@@jean-63 You're welcome. I hope to get much more active soon.
So I can't replace the water bath with this device, can't I use it in my jars with beans cooked with broth? Is it only for dry food?
No you can't replace any canning method with this. All it does is suck most of the air out. It is not for preserving food. Thanks for watching.
@@DaveCooksBiz ok thanks 👍🏻
@@DaveCooksBizthen what is it good for?
Do you know if it will work with the standard lid that come with the jars or do you have to use their specialized lids ? cool video, Thx
Thanks!! Yes, those are standard mason style jar lids.
@@DaveCooksBiz Cool thanks
Mine sucks and doesn't work
Sorry to hear.
Why the music?? If I wanted music, I’d turn my radio on. Just saying. Not everyone wants music. They didn’t watch for the music?
Thanks for watching! Music is supposed to add to the value... sorry.
Production value, son.
The music was very low so big deal
Why not the music? Goodness. Don’t let things like this bother you. You’ll live longer.
Cant please everone,they always find something to complain about.😊
