They said just hit the cancel button when you got as much air out as you want. Then hit the seal button.
I'll look at my machine.

Only thing i would worry about is making sure too double seal because sometimes the seal goes bad.
The whole point is to protect it from air really.

You can keep jars somewhere dark and cool.

Use the paper bag to roasting bags to jars with bovedas. Everything tastes great but thinking i can't smoke all this this year so maybe vac pack some for long term staorage in a bucket in the basement? Seems legit?
That will work fine.
Since we are talking about turkey bag cures, I’ll tell y’all where I’m at in the process and hopefully you can tell me what I’m doing wrong or what I need to do next.
I dried the buds in paper bags in the fridge for 3 wk ish. They were still in the 70’s RH. Used the popcorn balls to bring it down to high 60’s in the turkey bags. Now they are a couple days in the bags which have just been left on the dresser. I burp them a couple times a day. Sometimes 3 times. RH is mid 60’s right now. When I burp them I just grab the edges of the bag and push them up and down forcing an air exchange. Air in the room varies from around 55-65 RH. I have 3 5gal buckets not being used right now. Should I be putting the bags in those since they are available? Also, my plan was to get them stable at around 62 in the bags and then put them in jars with Boost packs. Is that acceptable? Or would the product be better if just kept in the turkey bags/buckets? Also, once they get to desired RH, how often do I burp them wether in jar or bag/bucket? Thanks in advance guys?

Hey magoo
So what I do is cut plant . Trim all leafy fans off and then wash plants shake good to remove water moisture pockets I call them.
Then hang for four hrs ish and remove buds off stem and into bags brown paper ones. My fridge currently is 58-65% was at one long 84% I added bowl of rice in drawer to try to help keep Rh down.
Anyways I burp like three to five time a day first few days and shake bags and leave on kitchen counter. For about 10-20mins this lets air attack the plant to dry out and my room is 68f and Rh on kitchen around 50%
So let it dry slowly. After about three to four days start reducing how many times you bring out . Up to about 2 weeks or so . Then into turkey bags in a bucket with air tight lid and burp once or twice a day for first week for about 30 mins . Did about week or two then close bag and let her steep. And whenever you want enjoy. I did miss a step take your buds once 62-58% or desired area. Put in jar in normal room after the two weeks or so and stick a few buds in a jar with hygrometer and if in range for rh after about hr or two they are ready for bags and burping curing process. Best I got for ya bro
Sweet harvest Joe! Hard work's done, now all you gotta do is kush it up.Well @Pennywise came down today 5.2 wet all three kush . Not de stemmed and wet whieght after wash and shake and whieght in box . Aiming for 1 lb well hoping around there . Be more then I thought for sure I was going to get . Kush is now hung upside down and some on rack fan not blowing directly on them but around . My neighbours goinna to hate me no carbon filter dank vent outside lol
I wonder about a vacuum jar attachment for the sealer. Have you tried it? I'm thinking it might be a good idea. Some folks are doing it.
Yes the cob thread are trying it for cobbing with some good success.
