We're longtime users of the Foodsaver vacuum packaging system. My uncle is the "personality" that sells them on QVC and infomercials, so I got a free one a long time ago. I use it all the time...actually, we have a spare one from when the wife and I moved in together and had a bunch of duplicate kitchen stuff, which means I wouldn't have to lug my grains up to the kitchen.
They work really well on our food, coffee, etc....so I've been thinking that I could extend the life of my precrushed grain (haven't gotten a grain mill yet) if I foodsaved them. Problem is, wifey would have my nutz in a vice if I used the ones that are for the kitchen. So I finally dropped the $40 on the jumbo box of foodsaver rolls at Sam's Club last night, and I'm gonna transfer it all as soon as I can. I'm wondering if anyone knows how long this may increase the shelf life of crushed grain...
