HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR VACUUM SYSTEM
Versatile, functional and above all hygienic – those are the characteristics that define ZWILLING FRESH & SAVE products. Find out here how to keep your products clean when vacuum sealing.
CARING FOR YOUR VACUUM SYSTEM – THE BEST TIPS FOR EVERY PRODUCT
Cleanliness is one of the essential ingredients for good cooking, and it is as much a part of kitchen organization as proper food storage. Only clean and consistently well-maintained food vacuum sealers, food storage containers and vacuum seal bags should be used in your kitchen. This prolongs the useful life of ZWILLING FRESH & SAVE products and helps to keep their vacuum power consistent. Regular maintenance also prevents the build-up of dirt and germs.
CLEANING THE VACUUM PUMP – HOW TO DO IT RIGHT
There are many good reasons to clean your vacuum pump. While it may not seem to have much contact with ingredients and food, it still welcomes proper, regular cleaning as an electrical kitchen appliance. Not to mention that certain elements may come in close contact with the pump.
The pump normally only touches the valve of ZWILLING FRESH & SAVE products, i.e. on the vacuum containers, lunch boxes, vacuum seal bags and the wine sealer. After regular use, we recommend cleaning it as follows:
Wipe the outside of the vacuum pump with a slightly damp cloth and open the cap.
Remove the silicone attachment inside the food vacuum sealer, rinse with warm water and put it back once dry.
Then close the cap and done!
If you want to vacuum seal marinated foods in a bag, you can use our liquid barrier to prevent liquids from entering the pump during suction. Small help, big impact. The liquid barrier holds back the liquid for you, giving you time to switch off the pump before sauces and the like get too close.
Our ZWILLING FRESH & SAVE vacuum seal bags are reusable for sustainability rather than one-off freshness. Therefore, we recommend cleaning your vacuum seal bags well after each use. Here is a step-by-step guide to how to do it best and what with:
First, pour some commercial dishwashing liquid and warm water and gently swirl it around the bag.
Then clean the bag with a suitable sponge or brush.
Pour out the sudsy water and rinse the bag thoroughly with clear water.
Mit einem sauberen Trockentuch innen wie außen antrocknen.
Nun den Vakuumbeutel von innen nach außen drehen, aufstellen und nach etwas Trockenzeit einfach wiederverwenden.
ZWILLING FRESH & SAVE vacuum containers and lunch boxes are even easier to clean.
The plastic and glass containers are dishwasher safe.
The flat lids can go in the dishwasher whole, but those with an indicator function must be disassembled beforehand.
The ZWILLING FRESH & SAVE wine sealer can also be easily cleaned in the dishwasher after use.
