Vacuuming in the bag
Vacuum the food in a suitable vacuuming bag in order
to preserve the food for longer, to marinate it or to
prepare it for sous-vide cooking.
Suitable vacuuming bag
Use the original vacuuming bags that are enclosed with
the appliance or can be ordered as accessories. These
bags are suitable for a temperature range of -40 °C –
100 °C. This means that they can be used for storing
food at low temperatures and also for cooking the
vacuum-sealed food that is contained in the bags. The
optimum heat-sealing time for this bag is level 2. The
bags are suitable for use in the microwave. Pierce the
bag before you heat it up in the microwave.
Only use bags that are suitable for vacuuming food.
Commercially available products are different when it
comes to the quality of the food, temperature
resistance, material and surface. Ensure that the bag is
used only for the purpose for which it is intended.
The heat-sealing time for the vacuuming bag always
depends on the material from which it is made. In most
cases, heat-sealing level 1 is sufficient for heat-sealing
thin bags. Vacuuming bags that are made from a
thicker material require a longer heat-sealing time at
heat-sealing level 2 or higher.
The length of the heat-sealing column limits the size of
the vacuuming bag that can be used. You should
therefore only use bags with a maximum width of
240 mm.
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 that the sealing seam is perfect, it is
important that the edge of the bag is clean and dry. To
ensure that the seam is perfect 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. 3 cm. Unfold the edge again once the bag has
been filled.
External vacuum-sealing adapter
The adapter is attached to the air out-
let on the vacuum-sealing drawer in
order to vacuum-seal vacuum-sealing
containers.
Vacuum-sealing hose
The vacuum-sealing hose connects
the external vacuum-sealing adapter to
the vacuum-sealing container.
