If you have a sealed bucket, and the bucket isn't exposed to ultraviolet or infrared, I don't understand how Mylar would help preserve the food. Can anyone fill me in?
Eh, I got mine for $1.87 per bag and just used a clothes iron to seal them. Worked like a charm.Nitro-Pak: $3.75 per bag! Plus $250 for the heat sealer. Ouch.
I think that was Josiah on this board here and it does work very well.I don't remember who recommended it first, but I now use a carpenters aluminum level as the surface to iron against, works super.
Yep, same thing I used. An aluminum level that had multiple ridges on the edge. Crank that iron up as high as it'll go and don't let it sit too long in one spot so it burns through.I think that was Josiah on this board here and it does work very well.
