what cc absorber for 1 gal rice with mylarbag
594237
I have read several places on the internet that you need the 300cc absorbers to use with the one gallon cans or mylar bags of food. I am also going to probably use them in my quart jars, because I'm almost afraid that the 100cc absorbers may not be enough. If I do decide to use the 100cc, I wil deffinutely vacuume seal them also. I hope you find my answer helpful and good luck with you food storage.

Its common to do a pound per gallon or 1 inch/ 1&1/2 inch. One bag will be fine.

It is the only sustrate I used when I started and has worked well. I have a 33gal tank and used 2 bags, it gave me about 1 inch depth.

Not that I know of, I use a 30gal. Contractor plastic bag, by folding the top over the rim of the stand, then setting the system down on top of the stand and bag. Works very well. Dump the bag in the trash can, use the bag over and over.

You need to use O2 absorbers like these. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004FRZ45K/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The bigger ones are for large bags, and there are smaller ones for smaller bags.

they have sealers, but i just use an iron. place bag in bucket and fill , leaving enough room to seal, about 4-5 in. place a wooden dowel under bag, and seal from BOTH ends leaving a small opening to put in the oxygen absorbers. push out remaining air and finish sealing. the bags will end up looking as if there is no air in bag.

Hello Phil, These bags are great, they seal very well and hold up to 25-30 lbs of rice or beans, they also come with the oxygen absorbers. as far as being genuine mylar bags I am sure that they are. They work well.

I've used both Herbal Moth Away sachets and cedar chip bags. They both need yearly replacement but I like how easy the sachets work into clothes and linens.

Directions are to add the bag to one gallon water. That has worked for me. If you want to use filtered water, that is okay, since the Prills actually adds back some of the micro minerals removed by filtering. Use a good, clean 1 gal container to start. Add the prills, fill with water. I forget how long you wait, 4 hrs or something like that. Then you should be good to go. Refill when you are down to about a quart or so. That will act as a "starter" for the next gallon.

I had the same question when I got my bag, which wants you to use the whole thing at once. So I asked a farmer friend; he recommended half an ounce per gallon of compost. Hope this helps!

the bag i bought is a medium, works well in my unit, just so you know 1 thing you have to have is a oil water separator. helps keep the blast dry and stops the clogging. i hope that helps you out.

I have only used the food saver brand, so I can't answer to using any vacuum bag,

Mine came with 1 Filler Bag, which is all that fits the outer shell anyways. I was only able to fit 15lbs of rice in it, was expecting 20lbs to fit.....

I agree with the seller. Not a good option for rice but the organic muslin bags would be perfect! We have those as well and they have been wonderful for chia seeds, orzo, anything small. We have been very happy with both types of bags!!

About 30 lbs. of rice goes into the 5 gal. bag. More can go into it. It depends on how much room you want for the lid to go on easy or not.

Both bags were included as of Sep 2014. Filled mine with Walmart rice ($2.50 for 5 lb). Will take about 9-10 lbs of rice, depending on how "malleable" you want the final result to be.If you don't have a wide neck funnel, you can make one by cutting off the top 4.5 inches of a two liter soda bottle.

Depends on your expectations. Will they hold liquid? Definitely. However, all plastic is porous to some degree thus people add the additional air barrier of a mylar bag (with absorbers). 10-5 Gallon Mylar Bags and 10-2000cc Oxygen Absorbers for Dried Dehydrated and Long Term Food StorageIf you go the route of the mylar, these are also very handy Bag Sealer for Mylar Bags 2 Heat Settings
