Mason Jar sealer

This is a cool attachment for my food saver. It will pull a mason jar down to a vacuum.

Great video! I have the same setup you have. I had my first vegetable garden this year. I put green beans in a jar added hot boiling water and a 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Pulled a good vacuum with this setup to seal them. They are so good to eat like this. I have tomatoes, squash, peas, greens, and green beans. I put these veggies up around September. I was told they should last a year or two. They are so good no way will I not eat them all up before the next garden season. You should try this.

LOL! You're a funny guy. I sure hope you aren't serious. If you do eat produce that you canned in that fashion just keep that number handy. (HMM what was that number?) Oh ya, 911.

I use a real vacuum pump like what air conditioning service use. It will boil water. I can suck water out of honey. mine would suck your glove up until it reached the lid. btw a vacuum has NO pressure. It is the absence of pressure. The sealing is from the air trying to get in the jar & not a vacuum pulling the lid closed.

That's a darn good idea! I'm AC certified, duh, I should have thought of that myself. Wonder how much they cost?

I've gone through a few of those Food Savers over the years. We put up a lot of halibut and salmon and garden stuff with them up in Alaska. Found out that wet items can really stress the vacuum pump motor - but it sure greatly increases the length of time you can keep fish & meat in the freezer.

We also had the vacuum canisters - which we didn't seem to use very much, plus the jar sealer attachment. It did quite well sealing dry goods in jars - we used it more than the canisters.

Please I have a question. I bought some mason jars but don't have a presure sealer. can i still use them to store things like salt,rice beans? or will the food go bad? how long can i store food in these mason jars without having used a presure sealer? i appreciate an answer and ty for the good video sir :)

@vention4wh HARBORFREIGHT has two $99.99 & $149.99.

then there are pawn shops & craigslist. Also, you could take a compressor out of a refrigerator. getting the plumbing parts to adapt to the tubing was tricky I I used some plastic pieces, but it works like a champ. I put an ad for canning jars on craigslist and was given 75 wide mouth quart jars. I would have paid money but I said thank you a lot instead.
