How to choose your domestic packaging machine - step by step guide

How to choose your domestic packaging machine - step by step guide

 

When choosing a domestic packaging machine we have to count on what not everything in the market is the same or is the same.


There are countless brands and models that create a real hodgepodge of prices and characteristics that can confuse the most experienced in the field. To make matters worse, you can sometimes see the same machine (Chinese manufacture) with a lot of different brands and with very different prices.

All domestic vacuum packaging machines work with embossed bags regardless of the model and brand. The bags are almost as important as the packaging machines. Quality embossed bags will make the machine work looser and the result is optimal. A low-quality embossed bag will cause the machine to force a lot of air out, will detract life and the result in many cases will not be adequate.

 

We are going to make a first screen to order a bit of both mess


- Air suction machines by nozzle, without vacuum channel and manufacturers such as Bomann, Jocca etc. They are not really vacuum machines but air suckers with filament sealing. (They do not serve to store vacuum packed food) They are useful for keeping food closed. We do not sell these machines and as soon as they are no longer commercialized

- Suction machine by low power channel and with air suction up to 8 liters / minute. They are usually Chinese machines, with very low quality plastics and excessively weak vacuum pumps. His life is short and the level of vacuum is insufficient. There are hundreds of brands and every day there is a new one. Most do not have technical services and are usually sold on large stores and on general internet websites (market-type pages that sell everything). We do not sell these machines.

- Suction machines by medium power channel with air intake up to 11 liters / minute. They are also of Chinese manufacture but with higher quality than the previous ones. They are usually already made of ABS plastic and their power is usually between 130 and 170 watts. Sealing is simple but sufficient and achieves a vacuum level suitable for domestic use both to store food in the refrigerator and to freeze. There are plenty of models and brands and there are very simple totally automatic and more sophisticated options with soft and hard foods or dry or with moisture products. Its closing system of the vacuum chamber is with anchor pins. These machines can vacuum in 4 or 5 bags in a row, then rest a few minutes. Our company has chosen within this range the Garhe Dora Vacuum Packing Machine, Garhe Apolo Automatic Domestic Vacuum Packing Machine, Garhe Cisne Vacuum Packing Machine (31140) and Garhe Compact Domestic Vacuum Packing Machine (31170). Your performance is good. The price is the lowest with which you can buy a machine with minimum guarantees. The technical service is unbeatable (door to door) and the relation quality price high.

- Suction machines by medium power channel. They are machines of greater quality both in their features and in their components. They are manufactured in Italy (cradle of domestic vacuum packaging) They are made of ABS plastic, the sealing is thicker and the pump has more power. These machines unlike those of the previous section can do continuous vacuum work of many bags in a row. They have greater capacity of air aspiration so they can use larger bags. The camera closes simply by lowering the lid and pressing and the vacuum is done by an electronic sensor which guarantees an optimal result. Our company has chosen two leading brands in this group VAIL and above all SICO, the best domestic packaging machine today. The main models of this group are: Automatic Vail Vacuum Packer. ABS, Sico 250 Basic vacuum cleaner - 400 w .. 0.88 bar. 15 l / min. Its performance is excellent, unbeatable technical service (door to door) and the quality price superior to any of the competition.

- Professional quality machines for domestic use. They are packaging machines built with components and features of professional machines but with designs adapted for domestic use. They are also Italian, of even greater power, with double and triple sealing and vacuum pumps with a capacity of depression that do not even reach in most cases the professional machines by external aspiration. The brand of these packaging machines is SICO and the selected models Sico 250 Premium Vacuum Packer and Nevada Professional Vacuum Packing Machine. As with all the previous ones, the warranty is 2 years and the technical service is door to door.

 

 

AND NOW HOW DO I CHOOSE MY MACHINE ?.

 

 

  • I buy food for several days so I usually bring larger quantities, sometimes I find meat or fish on offer and I buy a few kilos, I need a machine that can work a while and make a few bags. I also need a perfect seal so that it stays a long time and I also like to pack sauces and liquid foods in jars. I think the one I need is the Garhe Cisne Vacuum Packing Machine, or the Garhe Compact Vacuum Packing Machine.

 

  • I need a powerful machine to make many bags in a row because I buy in quantities and sometimes I also kill so in a day or two I have to pack a lot of products. I also need a machine with a perfect seal, that is easy to use and that can store cooked food, sauces, soft products in jars to put them in the fridge. I think I'll choose the Vail Automatic Vacuum Packer. ABS or theSico 250 Basic vacuum packaging machine.

 

  • I am a sybarite I only want the best; I am looking for a domestic machine with the quality and characteristics of a professional, that serves me for everything and that has all the characteristics of the best packaging machine, that can control the vacuum pressure, that can pack large quantities of bags in a row and that works with the Same ease with bags as with jars, that's why I prefer the Sico 250 Premium Vacuum Packer or the Nevada Professional Vacuum Packer

 

  • And if what I want is to cook vacuum. For vacuum cooking, or sous vide, we will need to pack inside the goffered bag the food that we want to cook and it will surely have to be seasoned with some oil, spices, etc. This creates a problem for most of the packers because that small amount of liquid if it reaches the seal will wet it and the bag will lose the vacuum, but what is worse, it will get water from cooking. However there are some vacuum packers within the group of the simplest that have an excellent option that is the manual vacuum button. While this button is held down, the machine empties. If it is released, it stops doing it (the liquid by gravity goes backwards). It squeezes again and empties again and so, how many times it takes to reach the desired level. Examples of these machines are: Garhe Cisne vacuum packing machine, or the Garhe Compact vacuum packing machine. There is a much better model but more expensive and with many more features: Vacuum packing machine with double body pump Eolo de garhe (31550). The most sophisticated high-end packaging machines with double or triple sealing and filter for the pump do not have this problem. With two and three sealed water will never enter and also have control of the sealing time so when there is some moisture, the sealing time is raised from 3 to 6 seconds and this humidity dries with the heat of the resistance. These double and triple sealed packing machines are: Sico 250 Premium Vacuum Packing Machine and the Nevada Vacuum Packing Machine

 

 For all these machines you will need embossedbags and rolls for daily use and freeze and embossed cooking bags for vacuum cooking. You will also need jars, lids and containers to store soft and liquid products.
