Know your Breville vac
The Breville Vac
Pac is a simple and effective
2
way to extend the shelf life of your food. It's
not only compact, but it also offers powerful
vacuum sealing. Vac
Pac uses special zipper-
2
top bags so you can easily access stored items
without having to cut open the bag every time.
This feature also enables the bags to be used
up to 20 times, which reduces waste and
saves you money.
Do not reuse Vac
Pac bags after using with
2
raw meat, fish or poultry or after Vac
Pac
2
bag has been heated, ie. microwave or
simmer.
Note
The Vac
Pac works by creating a small hole
2
in the bag and then vacuuming out the air
from that hole. Once the air is removed, the
Vac
Pac automatically creates a heat seal
2
ring around the hole to prevent air from re-
entering.
You can Vac
Pac just about anything you want
2
to keep fresh for longer. The Vac
Pac was
2
designed first and foremost for solid foods;
however, it also does a great job preserving
other valuable items, from silver (helps prevent
tarnishing) to silks (helps prevent pests).

Vac
Pac will save you time by allowing you

to prepare meals in advance. It will save you
money by allowing you to keep food fresh and
buy in bulk. It will even save you space since
vacuumed sealed items take up less space
than conventional storage.
We hope you enjoy all of the wonderful
benefits the Breville Vac
Pac has to offer...
