What model Foodsaver do you use for storing ingredients??

[duffbeer71]

I am looking into buying a Foodsaver, primarily so I can buy hops in bulk. I want to store them in mason jars and be able to just take out what I need and reseal the jar. I've been looking online and see different models I'm interested in, but I wanted to see if anyone has had a good experience with their models. Thanks in advance.

I bought THIS one about a year ago and love it. Has already paid for itself.

Do you use bags or jars for hop storage? Does that model have the ability to do jars?

My buddy uses that model as well, but I can't remember.

I only use bags right now, but it can do jars.

I have this one as well, but I don't know how it interfaces with jars. I have stored hops in bags with it and you can have it stop vacuuming at any point you want so you don't crush things. That's a feature that the cheaper ones don't have. I will have to look into the jar sealing, that would be useful.
