Lenny, It makes me wonder what's in that flavoring! I would not try repairing the container for food purposes, you'd end up with sand embedded in the surface as well as flavoring.
It's much better for coffee flavor to freeze it in the bean and grind what you will use each day. I've always wondered about the permiability of plastics when used for vaccuum storage, I doubt they're that gas tight. tom Fowle On Wed, Nov 04, 2009 at 07:42:29AM -0500, Lenny McHugh wrote: > Karen has a food vacuum packer.
