Just wondering. I saw one on TV for $20 I was thinking about getting it to store hops. Does anyone know how well it works?
Anyone use the handheld foodsaver for hops?

I have one and it works well. Only problem I have is hop particles getting all over the bag and it not sealing. I just make sure the area that is heat sealed is free of hops and it works just fine.
Mine sucks!

I use a standard foodsaver for my hops, I have a few rolls of smaller bags that I use. as well as the bigger ones for bulk hops. I also use the big bags to store grainbills for upcoming brews, vacuum packed, labeled and ready to go. never heard of a handheld one though, I am going to look into it right now!

We have the standard Foodsaver. It works great. I bought it when the hop shortage was at it's peek because I bought hops bulk and needed to store them in small compact containers.
