Filling the Bag
Where possible, position the items of food in the vacuum-
sealing bag next to each other and not on top of each
other.
To ensure a proper sealing seam, it is important that the
edge of the bag is clean and dry. To ensure a proper
seam during the heat-sealing process, it is important that
there is no food residue around the seam on the edge of
the bag. Before you fill the bag, you should therefore fold
over its edge by approx. 1¼" (3 cm). Unfold the edge
again once the bag has been filled.
To ensure that you can keep track of your bags and the
food that is vacuum-sealed within them, we recommend
that you make a note on the bag of the date of the
vacuum-sealing along with the contents.
