Walton's Chamber Vac

[ND Mike]

Finally got to use this beast. I sealed 3 bags of soup to freeze. I can tell you I am really going to like this vac sealer. Between this chamber sealer and the Walton’s Fresh sealer I will have everything covered!

ND Mike Very, very nice. Hey, you got one too many…

[GWG8541]

ND Mike yeah, I’m a little jealous.

[samspade]

I love my chamber. You will be putting everything in bags.

ND Mike Looks like you are set for some of those cold winter days coming up.

[ND Mike]

bocephus yep! I will be saving those for some frigid days.

[ND Mike]

[lkrfletcher]

Bagged up some leftover chili from last weekend. Awesome machine.

[samspade]

Yep! That’s how it done.

[ND Mike]

PapaSop yes it is. This will be a game changer at our house!

[Randie N]

ND Mike they are pretty awesome aren’t they! Now if you get into the sousvide game you can take the bag out of the freezer and straight into sousvide setup to warm up. Everyone want some new toys don’t they twilliams

[ND Mike]

Randie N yep they are. Still on the fence with sous vide stuff.

[samspade]

I like it cause if you get distracted (like I usually do…) you wont burn your dish.

PapaSop The only thing I wonder about with the vacuum-packed freeze is if there is enough elasticity in the wrap to allow for the expansion of the product when freezing. How is it looking guys? Frozen brick chili is FANTASTIC when thawed & heated up when you need a steaming hot bowl of Chili in the Winter.

calldoctoday I will let you know. I will check if I had a blowout when I get home from work.

ND Mike Let’s keep our fingers crossed that all is well because it looks so good, I would really hate to see that happen. Not to mention the fact that it just packs away so much better than soup cylinders or mason jars. I always have to leave several inches of head space before I put the caps on with the normal containers, but hopefully the plastic has enough give in it that it will make up for it all.

calldoctoday I’m not luck enough to have a chamber vac yet. For soups and chili I still just use ziplock freezer bags and manually take out as much air as possible, then freeze on its side. Let me know how the chamber vac goes.

ND Mike congrats on an awesome machine. It’s on my wish list.
