Vacuum caps and pump VAX: reviews (photos)

From year to year, the growing popularity of canning vegetables, fruits and other products in the vacuum way. A little bit earlier, the food for winter was closed with a conventional dressing machine. But this method was too troublesome, and the number of spoiled cans sometimes exceeded 30-40%.

If you tried to use vacuum coverings for canning with pump WACS for conservation of pickled, marinated or fresh produce, you surely saw that it was more practical, economical and convenient.

Innovative system

Many housewives and amateurs to prepare meat, vegetable or fruit reserves for the winter have left in the past a laborious and rather complicated process of rolling semi-finished products with metal covers. Thanks to intelligent domestic developments, the WACS (vacuum preservation system: 9 covers, pump) came to replace the iron keys.

About ten years ago, the Samara enterprise "Istok" was the first to put this unique system on the conveyor belt, which gained almost universal popularity. Let's try to disassemble in more detail what the vacuum caps and pump WACS are: responses, completeness, advantages and what products can be preserved with this system.

Why do we need vacuum canning?

Vacuuming any products allows you to store vegetables, meat, fruits for a long time, and not only in salted or marinated form. The airless environment will easily provide a natural and natural look to fresh mushrooms, tomatoes, fish or greens, while preserving their properties.

Vacuum system VAKS (9 covers, pump) relieves the hostesses of additional troubles: there is no need to fill cucumbers, peppers and berries with pickles or some marinades, before rolling it all into a glass jar. It is enough just to wash the food, dry it, put it in a container and close it with a special lid. After the evacuation procedure, there will be no microbes or air left in the cans. Scientific tests have shown that conservation in the airless and non-microbial space can be perfectly preserved for many months. All you need to successfully prepare the products (except for the products themselves) are the vacuum caps and the WAX pump.
