Use of the function "Pulse Vacuum"
17.5
Since the pressure of the vacuuming becomes too strong for specific foods and these
could be crushed in the bag, you can adjust the length and strength of the vacuuming
process via the function "Pulse Vacuum". So you can adjust the vacuum strength to the
consistency of your vacuum food and also seal soft foods (for example berry fruit) without
crushing them. Due to the time and pressure control, the crushing of delicate foods is
prevented. You can also use this function for the packaging of juicy foods to prevent that
fluids are aspirated and drawn out.
1. Put the foods you want to store into the bag.
2. Clean and smooth the open end of the bag and be sure that there are no folds or waves
on the surfaces of the open ends.
3. Be sure that the open end of the bag is within the vacuum chamber. This guarantees
that there is no escape of the vacuum.
4. Close the lid and press down firmly on the front handle.
5. Press the button "Pulse Vacuum". As long as you press the button, air is withdrawn.
Only when you release the button, the process stops. Thus you can exactly control the
vacuum and prevent the liquid from being sucked. Please hold the button pressed until
the required vacuum has been reached.
6. Then press the button "Manual Seal" and seal the bag.
** Press the button "Cancel" (Vakuum & Schweißen / Abbrechen) to interrupt the
process.
17.6 Bags and rolls
Please only use specified bags and rolls designed for vacuum sealing. Do not use other
materials such as plastic wrap. All vacuum rolls and bags delivered by CASO are
appropriate for cooking under vacuum (sous vide). Furthermore the vacuum rolls and bags
can be used for defrosting and heating in the microwave at up to 70° C. Please make sure
when vacuum rolls and bags of other producers are used, whether they are also
microwaveable and suitable for cooking under vacuum.
Please note that a bar vacuumsealer as this device can only be used with structured bags.
You can buy a wide range of different bags and rolls from CASO.
17.7 Opening a sealed bag
Cut the bag straight across with scissors, just inside the seal.
