[QUOTE="Kyle Weiss, post: 185047, member: 1969"] Cost for cost, it would wash about the same, considering the storage requirements of the jars themselves, equipment needed, etc etc (really quick mental break down). :lol: That's a good tip to know, that some "breathing room" is necessary for the anaerobic process--while keeping stuff "fresh" can still be achieved if one so chooses. I suppose I wondered only because of some of the "pack and stuff" method eliminating much of the "airspace" in the jars, for why not just find a method to get it [i]all[/i] out of there? Incidentally, I have used foodsaver bags/machines for food, and you can stop the vacuum process early, leaving a little bit of air space. The only reason why I'm thinking about this is storage efficiency. Jars are tough to stack, place and balance on one another for some, while I could see many pounds of vacuum bags practically stuffed into a thick, cardboard box, labeled and forgotten about much easier (and less heavy). Just theories and thoughts. [/QUOTE]
