Questions & Answers
Where are these oxygen absorbers made?
How many times can they be used?
1 time each
Can I use these to package microgreens in a clear compostable clamshell container?
While the oxygen absorbers are food-safe, using them with a clear compostable clamshell container for microgreens may not be ideal. The oxygen absorbers work by reducing oxygen levels, which helps preserve food. However, microgreens need some light and air circulation to thrive. Storing them in a sealed container with an oxygen absorber might hinder their growth and freshness. It's generally better to store microgreens in a container that allows for some air exchange.
are these the same as the moister control?
Oxygen absorbers and moisture control packets, while both used in food preservation, work through different mechanisms. Oxygen absorbers remove oxygen, which helps prevent spoilage and oxidation. Moisture control packets absorb excess moisture, preventing mold and mildew growth. They are often used together for optimal food preservation, but they are not the same.
Is it okay to used these with 5-gallon food-safe buckets? If so, how many packets per for, say, buckets of dry rice?
Yes. It is recommended you use 1 oxygen absorber for every gallon inside the bucket.
Are the individually packaged? Do I have to use all right away or can they be stored?
They are packaged in packs of 10 each. You do not have to use them all right away. If you take a few out to use, you can use your heat sealer to reseal the rest of them for later use.
Is it food grade safe?
Yes they are.

Oil Filter Replacement Cartridges 3 Pack
Pack of 3 filter cartridges for replacement in filtering system to help preserve the life of your pump and increase the performance of your freeze dryer. Cartridges should be replaced after approximately 15-20 uses, or sooner, depending on the quality of the oil. Oil Filtration Directions:Open the oil reservoir drain valve and allow oil to drain into your oil filter. Assure all of the oil comes out by lifting therear of the vacuum pump slightly. Wait for the oil to filter through your filtration system. A small amount of water accumulates in the oil as part of each batch. When the oil is filtered, the water and oilwill separate. The water will sink to the bottom of the bottle while the oil floats on top of the water. Remove the water from the oil by pouring out the oil and discarding the water. Do not pour the water back into the vacuum pump. This will ultimately damage the pump. Pour the filtered (or new) oil into your vacuum pump. How do I know that my filtered oil is clean for use? The best indications for cleanliness are as follows: Oil is void of debris or particulates, Oil is not milky or chalky, Oil has clarity (the color may be yellow or amber and still have clarity), Your vacuum pump is achieving a pressure (mTorr) suitable for freeze drying. How do I know when I need to replace my oil filter? Oil won't drain through filter (this can happen over time as debris builds up), Oil isn't cleaning well (i.e. The oil continues to be milky or full of debris)
