and the sealing time.

• Lift the cover and place the pouch

containing the food to be packed inside

the tank, leaving at least 2 cm beyond

• It is important not to soil the pouch in

the sealing area so as to guarantee

a perfect seal. For this reason it is

advisable to fold the inner side of the

pouch outwards by 4-5 cm. Once the

6.2 Vacuum food packaging

for “SousVide” low temperature

vacuum pouch is then cooked slowly at

low temperature.

The bene󰄈ts provided are many:

• the 󰘱avour and texture of the remains

unaltered.

• both 󰘱avour and aromas are

preserved, as the cooking process

does not disperse them.

• the reduced loss of liquid makes the

food softer and less dry.

• nutrients like minerals and vitamins are

preserved.

• You don't need to add oils or fats for

cooking.

6.3 Vacuum packaging for food

preservation

preservation.

If you wish to vacuum pack freshly

cooked food, it must 󰘰rst be chilled,

possibly using a blast chiller.

pan removed.

The marinating and infusion cycle has a

preset time of 8 minutes.

Increase the infusion and repeat the

cycle.

This infusion can be deactivated at any

time by pressing the button.

You can marinate food directly in

the pouch.

In this case, set the relevant
