Excellent trick, the quadrant-type sealing! Thanks.
Nice video. That's a great idea to turn those into little bags for storing small portions.
Great! Will definitely use your idea❤ Southern woman are my favorite, since I married one my I Q has doubled and yes this has been approved by my wife! Thanks for sharing now My fish will be sealed til the fish fry!
Cool. Thanks for sharing.
CLEVER!!! And brilliant! Just ordered this, my old one (Foodsaver) just/finally died (15-16 yrs old!), and I LOVE the idea of the double seal!! This is an quarter-sized pouches is an amazing idea! (Hour+ N. of Atlanta myself...)

What area are you in?
I’ve had several different models of Foodsaver vacuum sealers over the last 15 years. kzread.infoUgkxLarn2Zt7095D2lp3tN-bj5JtYPg3Wz2 I picked up the Nesco unit because it consistently receives top reviews it all across the Internet. Get this if you’re serious about vacuum sealing. This is the most have unit. The only tiny annoyance is not being able to lock the lid when you put it in storage that is such a tiny nitpick however, it’s almost worth not mentioning.
Great demo. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the tip! Great way to save on bags & make smaller sizes!
I’m glad you did this video I have the same device now for a few days I’m excited to have the nesco machine and I’m from Georgia as well

Love mine so far
Thank you so much this is very helpful I’m gonna try this I like to have individual frozen small portion is better for me
Thank you for your video!
Very clever TFS
Very helpful. I like how you showed it didn't sit right the first try and you had to adjust to make sure the bag was flat with no wrinkles along the seal line.

That's pretty cool. I was wondering about sealing individual serving before I purchase. You sold me.

I just diced and froze 10 large onions and changed my technique just a bit - I separated each compartment before doing the last seal on each and it helped with the bit of puckering I was getting when doing this video. Thanks for your comment!

Thank you 🙏🏾
Nicely done.. 🌶🌶🌶

Genius!
can you use food saver hose that come with jar sealer accesory to this nesco model ? Please let me know. it would be nice if you could put a video for that. thanks
I'm wondering why you couldn't just cut the bags to size and seal them as you wish?
Do you know the thickness of the bag roll that will fit in the bag storage compartment? is: will a 25 foot or 50 foot roll available on Amazon fit and able to close the handle? Thanks

I buy the 50 ft rolls and cut the roll down so it fits. Hope that helps!
Is a 11in roll a better buy rather than a 8in roll, since you can create smaller sized bags? Thanks

I use both sizes because I vacuum seal large and small items.
Does it have a jar sealing accessory???
@honeybellehillhomestead3033

It has a hole to connect the tube and jar sealers. I have the FoodSaver ones and they work with it.
My FoodSaver died after 5 hard years of use. Have you use the FoodSaver brand sealers which do you prefer, Nesco or FoodSaver? I'm in the market for a new one.

I've owned two FoodSaver brand vacuum sealers that I bought used and they were okay, but not great. Just before I bought the Nesco, I purchased the FoodSaver fm2100. I did a LOT of research on the various models and it appears this model is identical to their gamesaver model, minus the camo coloring. I really liked it and it plowed through packaging 70 pounds of chicken breasts without a pause. It doesn't have any customization settings - you just push the button and go. I really liked it and in the end, I couldn't decide between the Nesco and the fm2100. My husband told me to keep them both, in case the Nesco fails. Nesco tends to be picky about what they put their name on, so I'm hopeful it will last, but I am having a bit of an issue with the gasket that I don't have with the FoodSaver. So, if you love the FoodSaver brand, I can recommend the fm2100. I ordered mine from Walmart.com.

@@honeybellehillhomestead3033 This was such a helpful reply. Shopping for a replacement for our 3rd FoodSaver. I like the double seal because we also cut and make smaller bags(to store smoked cheese) but we have to do it with a single seal. The double seal will make it faster. The gasket issue is what we have with our FoodSaver. Our Kenmore was the best one; probably made by FoodSaver. Great video.
does it still work to this day?
Can I purchase quart and gallon size bags for this machine?

Any vacuum seal bags will work with it. I use rolls because they are more affordable.
The bags are supposed to go up and under those notches.

Yes. I've discovered my issue is actually with the gasket.
Do you/can you reuse these bags?

Technically, if you left enough room between the seal and the food, yes. You have to have a couple of inches to fit into vacuum channel. So each time you seal, you would lose a couple of inches of bag until you couldn't seal any more. Hope that helps!
you had this for awhile does it still work

Either one is good. I use Nesco but won’t go wrong with either. The saving’s is great but sealed fish is awesome 😎
