Why is my FoodSaver not sealing after vacuum?
Check the seal bar and gasket for debris. If present, you can clean them with a damp cloth and then reinsert them into the vacuum sealer. Make sure that the seal is not damp during the sealing process. If it is, then pull out the profile, dry it with a cloth, and then reinsert it into the unit.
Can you use Ziploc bags in a FoodSaver?
Ziplock bags can be sealed and unsealed multiple times using a FoodSaver. The seal on these bags is not strong enough for long-term food storage. A vacuum sealer is needed for long term food storage. Ziplock bags can be sealed with a FoodSaver for a stronger seal that can be used for long-term storage.
Can I use other bags with seal a meal?
Do I have to use the FoodSaver® Bags? Other plastic bags allow air to seep through. If you want to use your FoodSaver® appliance to re-seal, but not vacuum package a bag (without removing the air first) you can use it on Mylar type (strong, thin polyester) or stiff plastic bags, not any other types.
