Vacuum Sealers Like Tilia Foodsaver...

[Guest guest]

I have a Tilia vacuum sealer that has proven indispensible for

keeping things fresh in either bags or mason jars. There's an

attachment that allows you to vacuum seal mason jar lids as well as

a " universal " lid that fits almost any size jar. They suck out all

the air while keeping the lid on.

If I open a bottle of wine and then vacuum reseal it with the

provided wine top, a week later the wine still tastes like it was

just uncorked. I'm trying to figure out what this means for

fermenting foods generally.

If I store fermented foods like sauerkraut or Kombucha tea in vacuum

sealed containers will this do anything good or bad for the bacteria

culture? Will the bacteria stop multiplying, will they multiply more

heavily, will they be alive or dead? Thanks. ~Robin R
