Removing the Air from Zip Lock Bags

RE: Removing the Air from Zip Lock Bags By Judy (Guest Post) Another easy way to remove the air from a plastic bag before sealing it is to insert a drinking straw. Close the bag up to the point where the straw is and then suck out the remaining air.

Water pressure squeezes the air out and presses the bag onto the product inside.

Your method of getting the air out of the bag works much better than my old way. Thanks for this tip.

This way I have flat bags of liquid that will stack in the freezer..these are the zipper type bags and I have NEVER had one leak.

Obviously you can't do this with delicate or crushable things, but if you're packing for a trip and want to squeeze the air out of clothes to fit more in your suitcase, this will work. It works for lots of other things as well. :-) Posted on 07/27/2007 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Removing the Air from Zip Lock Bags By JoanDogs (124) Profile Contact I use John's method [previous post] but not if the contents have a bread coating! Inadvertently I did and choked on the tiny crumbs! Same goes for liquids! Just go SLOWLY when sucking out the air. Fat straws work the best.
