Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Vacu Vin Coffee Saver Refill ContainerCustomer Review: Not perfect, but still worth it. Summary: 4 Stars
After using the wine savers, I was eager to try the canisters. They do tend to come unsealed for some reason. However, when they hold (more often than not) they do a wonderful job, and have saved me a lot of food that would have otherwise gone to waste. I have kept rice cakes in these things for weeks, and they were as crisp as the day I opened the package. I kept store-bought cookies in one for close to two months - again, not a bit stale. I have noticed that any particles that adhere to the rubber seal or the rim of the canister seem to affect the seal, so I always check that no crumbs have stuck to either. The water trick suggested by another reviewer sounds helpful. My only concern there would be that that might introduce moisture into the canister. However, I am going to give it a try. All in all, these canisters are good. The seal does occasionally fail, but when it holds, it is wonderful. I am on this page because I am thinking of adding another to my set (I already have six canisters and two rectangular marinaters/containers, but I would use more if I had them). BTW, the marinater does a wonderful job, and I've never had a problem with the seal while marinating (shorter time in use, perhaps?). ...and it really does work fast!
Description of Vacu Vin Coffee Saver Refill ContainerThis replacement container for Vacu Vin's Coffee Saver vacuum-pump system preserves the flavor and aroma of ground coffee, replicating the vacuum-sealed package the coffee beans comes in. The plastic container holds about 1/2 pound of ground coffee and stands 5 inches high (without lid). While it's ideal for coffee, the container is also perfect for any food that loses freshness quickly when exposed to air, including chocolate, crackers, and nuts. --Fred Brack
