<div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: Dollface</div>
<div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="7200231">
Hello, Thank you for reaching out to us at FoodSaver&reg; . To ensure optimal vacuum sealing and minimize the risk of losing vacuum due to hot steam, we recommend allowing your cooked vegetables to cool to room temperature before vacuum sealing them. Hot steam generated during the cooking process can interfere with the vacuum sealing process and may compromise the effectiveness of the seal. Allowing your vegetables to cool before vacuum sealing helps to prevent excess moisture and steam from affecting the seal, ensuring a tight and secure closure. Once your veggies have reached room temperature, you can proceed with vacuum sealing them to help maintain their freshness for longer periods. If you have any further inquiries or require additional assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us us via https://www.foodsaver.com/support/contact-us or through LiveChat. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! FoodSaver&reg; Consumer Care

Hello! &quot;Liquids with a viscosity of 1.39 mPa&middot;s or higher&quot; is a specific requirement or threshold regarding the viscosity of liquids. Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow. Liquids with higher viscosity are thicker and flow more slowly, while liquids with lower viscosity are thinner and flow more easily. Please kindly refer to the https://www.dixonvalve.com/sites/default/files/product/files/brochures-literature/viscosity%20chart.pdf to check the viscosity of the liquids.
