Hello! on Sun, 22 Nov 2020 22:30:16 GMT]]>@Tex_. Yeah I am pretty bummed out. I just had a few questions for them but nothing. The users I found with cracks said no dishwasher. Rather the bottom of the drum is flat and the cracks started directly in the center. Pull a vacuum on a flat surface will always go to the least supported area. In this case the center.

I really wanted to try this it sounds like a great idea.

Hello! on Sun, 22 Nov 2020 22:25:11 GMT]]>lkrfletcher That’s interesting, when I contacted customer service I had a quick response. I also haven’t had any issues with it sealing. I have to wonder if the people’s who had thier units cracked were washing them in a dishwasher?

Hopefully you can find something that works for you.

Hello! on Sun, 22 Nov 2020 17:16:53 GMT]]>I was ready to pull the trigger on a new marinade express pro (was hoping for Black Friday) but after not hearing from their customer service department and especially after readIng several bad reviews about the machine not sealing properly after a few tries and cracks in the bottom of the chamber. well I have decided not to get one. Pretty disappointed that the company would not return my call, or email. Still not even sure it would work at all at 6000 ft.

Hello! on Tue, 17 Nov 2020 14:35:08 GMT]]>lkrfletcher There has to be SOME penalty for living in the Mountains, sure you have better air, gorgeous scenery, more wild life, access to amazing outdoor activities BUT I can pull a better vacuum on my tumbler…check mate!

Hello! on Tue, 17 Nov 2020 13:09:39 GMT]]>lkrfletcher I asked our Application Specialist and he said he thought it would change the way the machine performed but he wasn’t sure if it would be a good thing or a bad thing. I did some google searching (always dangerous) and the consensus seems to be that vac machines are not as effective as the air is less dense so it is harder to remove as much air. I am not sure if that means that this would be 5%, 10% or 50% less though

Hello! on Wed, 05 Aug 2020 20:47:40 GMT]]>Jonathon I know I should probably not be talking here as I have not actually used the tumbler (But, I would be willing to try it for you & provide a review, ha). I am thinking that the broccoli might be more prone to damage than the pepper. I would probably at least gut the peppers in half to get the marinate into the core & still I am thinking they would be fairly durable. Excellent point on the tomatoes, but like you said, that might be an experiment in itself. Maybe you need to devise a salsa or picco de gallo type marinate where you use the initial marinate flavor with the tomatoes, etc. to create the final salsa with the tumbler. You are very likely correct though, that hardier more solid vegetables would work best with the tumbler. Thank you for identifying all that.

Hello! on Wed, 05 Aug 2020 20:39:45 GMT]]>Tex_77 I think the tumble would ruin any but the hardiest or lightest (leafy) of vegetables. I’d think vacuum sealing them, or the 5 minute marinator that calldoctoday is talking about is your best option.

The express does have settings for broccoli and another for leafy greens so that tracks with my thinking above but something like a pepper or tomato is going to get slaughtered…that might actually be a really really fun experiment!

Hello! on Wed, 05 Aug 2020 18:22:21 GMT]]>Tex_77 I have used the five minute marinater on vegetables & it worked well. I would gather the tumbler would work even better. I have used a few different marinates as well as the Greek Cyclops, just as you would for meat, but let it marinate a little longer.

Hello! on Sun, 19 Jul 2020 16:53:44 GMT]]>Jonathon Joe Hell I tried out the Cyclops Greek Marinade using the Marinade Express Vacuum Tumbler on some chicken and it was amazing, highly recommended that marinade. I also did one chicken using Goya Picanta Marinade and it was very good as well.

Hello! on Mon, 22 Jun 2020 17:19:06 GMT]]>Jonathon Hi there - He saw it used on BBQ Pitmasters one time and said he would like to try that!! I took the hint! He used it Saturday to marinate wings… It was delicious!! Great purchase! I’ll be buying more marinades and rubs… thank you so much!

Hello! on Fri, 19 Jun 2020 17:15:57 GMT]]>TexLaw Canning I have an All American 941 41 Quart Pressure Canner. Now that’s a big one, but I can do 14 quarts at a time and tend to do larger volumes. Best part, this will pass to several generations. They make several smaller sizes. Every part is serviceable so can change handles and bolts as needed. Very safe with a blow-out plug if it were to ever clog. (never went off for me) Highly recommend this pressure cooker.

Hello! on Fri, 19 Jun 2020 16:27:34 GMT]]>We have a big one, I cannot remember how many quarts it is off hand, but it is big & simple. The parts can be ordered on line & I need to order some, before it is too late as we have had it probably over 30 years. It has a weight & a pressure gauge. We used to have a smaller version too, but my wife threw it away as she started reading too many stories & talking to folks claiming they were dangerous. It was actually a nice one for smaller situations & same brand. I like that they are simple (keep it simple works best in the long run with everything!), thus easy to maintain, no DIGITAL parts, etc. It has served us very well over the years. Probably the worst things is we are in an all electric house now unfortunately as I could not afford to bring gas in on this one & we have one of those fancy (I don’t really like it, not simple, & not really high quality, just fancy) glass top ranges & you are not supposed to use the big ones on those. However, it seems to work perfectly fine & we really have no choice on that.

Hello! on Fri, 19 Jun 2020 15:11:46 GMT]]>It sounds like a lot of folks (here and in other arenas) use the Presto pressure canners, and a lot of folks seem to like them. I’m getting more and more interested. What to others around here have to say about them?
