Walton’s Chambered sealer

I see this is going on sale soon. Will probably grab one. Question. What size and bag thickness is everyone using?
I’m basically snack sticks, summer sausage, brats, steaks etc. I’ll be getting the Walton’s bags for this. Thanks. -

I think a huge selling point is you can vac seal liquids! Leftover soups can now be vac sealed for better storage in the freezer!!! I see myself buy more bulk type meats and vac sealing at home. I can’t wait for Friday to get here.

You can use 3mm bags for boneless items. If it has a sharp point the 4 or 5 mm but you will have to turn up the sealing time a little.

Thanks. I was looking at the 3mil bags. Good to know about the bone in and thicker bags. Appreciate it.

samspade how long do you set the sealing time on sausage or sticks?

Randie N thanks for the comments.

good tips for sealing time/bag thickness

How big is the chamber? Could you seal, say, a whole pork butt with it?

Stil curious about bag sizes.
6x?
7x?
8x?
10x? -
PapaSop What would you be curious about regarding those sizes? Which ones to buy or what the first number is? The first number is the width and the second is the length. I got an assortment with my chamber sealer when I bought it and now have figured out which bags I use the most. Of course the ones I would like to use even more aren’t available in the 1oo packs.

Just what most are using for length. As I mentioned before for brats, sticks, sausage etc.

I guess with the Foodsaver I adjusted on the fly, but these sizes are fixed. -

PapaSop It varies on what length of product I am packaging and the type. I usually by the longer bags since they don’t cost that much more, pennies if that. It much easier to have the extra length than to try to make a seal on a bag that is barely long enough to go past the sealing bar. The bags will sometimes pull away from the sealing bar if they are filled to close to the end.

You can use your Foodsaver to make bags and then chamber seal them as well. I have done that since I have several hundred foot rolls left and also still use the Foodsaver for other projects

Perfect. Good to know. Thank you! -
ND Mike I dont have a waltons chamber vac. Bought the cheap Chinese knock off. So my sealing time on 3mm is 2.3 sec. Cool down 3.0 sec. You will have to test your unit. Throw cold water and seal. When done check bag for leaks.
