Hello everyone. I was thinking about an easy way to vacuum jars without having to purchase expensive special jars or expensive jarring machines. The diy ideas that I saw online involve heating up the jars to make air inside less dense than the outside which is not really vacuum but will do to tighten the lid and keep the pressure outside pushing in. I don't like the idea of putting weed in hot jars and it is not vacuum enough i guess and is not that easy to do.
So I got this idea while I was thinking about buying vacuum chambers with glove box for another purpose and then I thought what if I get a big enough sealing machine that can fit a jar inside a bag and I can suck the air out then simply close the jar and cut open the bag. I am thinking it would work a little bit like a glove box vacuum chamber. I can still hold the lid and tighten it inside the vacuum bag. Can anyone tell if this idea would work and if not why? Will it create a vacuum in the jar? The bag sealing machines are relatively affordable nothing to compare with the jar sealing machines and I don't want to buy the expensive pump n'seal jars since I have quite a few jars that I would like to seal
