Cider Storage - Beverage Bags

[Jimmydoubleu]

Has anyone had success or could recommend food grade beverage storage bags that you can freeze? In particular, looking for at least gallon size. Thanks!

Curious...why not just use 1gal juice containers? Gal is a gal. I freeze the plastic 1gal juice containers for AJ....zero issues.

Good luck!

I have a regular refrigerator freezer and trying to max space. I found this, but via customer service, they could not verify it could freeze. https://www.webstaurantstore.com/1-...MInJbR5fnF3AIVD41pCh3DwA-WEAQYASABEgIaefD_BwE.

I may just buy to try with some water first but I’m certain their are bladder like containers.

You can freeze any and all food grade vacuum storage bags, but you need a vacuum sealer.

If you leave some space for expansion I don't see why they wouldn't work.

You can try to buy one from a local coffee shop that uses them. I’ve been to several functions where they have coffee in them.

I do have the Costco variety Foodsaver, so yes, that could with worth a try. Thanks!

I would try to mount/hang the vacuum sealer so it hangs with hinge part facing up (and the lid facing you) and then put the cider inside a bag but leave at least 25% empty space at the top and have someone else help you hold/seal it but you'd likely have to be very careful not to get the bag wet and it might be a pain. You could potentially put the cider in ziplock bags first and then put the ziplocks inside the vacuum sealer bag and then seal that - the ziplock might pop but the vacuum bag would probably be sealed by then lol.

I would double seal all the edges and seals on the vacuum bag and maybe even use two.

You can get like two 50 foot rolls of FDA approved food safe vacuum bags on amazon for under $20 I think.
