Does altitude impact vacuum sealing?

Yes, altitude does impact vacuum sealing. Vacuum pump performance is impacted by atmospheric pressure because free air is less dense at higher altitudes and therefore reducing the capacity and maximum vacuum pressure that can be attained.

What is Sous Vide?

Developed in France in the 1970s, sous vide is a culinary technique in which food is vacuum-sealed and cooked in a water bath at a consistent low temperature for an extended period of time. Ideal for families with busy schedules and health-conscious lifestyles, sous vide cooking delivers easy meal solutions that make dinnertime virtually foolproof.

It’s as easy as 1, 2, 3: just season and vacuum seal your food; slip it into your sous vide cooker; set it and forget it. That’s it. And when you’re ready, serve up perfection.
