We bought a set of adapters designed to allow vacuuming Mason jars. They are intended to be used in conjunction with the vacuum function on bag sealing machines. However, the vacuum developed by the bagging machines is only a quarter to a third of a perfect vacuum. I built a manifold that attaches to my freeze drier vacuum pump. The pump pulls down to 30+ inches of mercury, the equivalent of deep space. The vacuum is so deep, I have to put a glove on my hand to pull the lid off a vacuumed jar or pry it off with a table knife.
NOTICE: I am NOT suggesting this procedure is a replacement for proper canning methods where/when required.
