ZWILLING Fresh & Save Vacuum Pump and Bag

The rechargeable lithium-ion battery is designed to be highly efficient. On a full charge, the pump can seal dozens of bags before needing to be plugged back in via USB.

Yes, the system is fully compatible with sous vide. The airtight seal created by the vacuum bags ensures heat transfer is consistent and prevents the bags from floating during the cooking process.

The ZWILLING Fresh & Save system is designed to work specifically with its own line of specialized vacuum bags and containers. The pump creates a proprietary seal that requires the valve technology found on these specific bags.

By removing the air from the bag, the vacuum pressure opens the pores of the food, allowing marinades to penetrate deeply in just 30 minutes. It essentially accelerates the process that would normally take hours of soaking.

Yes, the bags are designed to be reusable. After use, simply wash them with warm, soapy water and let them dry completely before sealing them again.

The pump is very compact, roughly the size of a standard kitchen gadget or a large marker. It is designed to fit easily into a standard utensil drawer without cluttering your workspace.
