Oxy-Sorb Oxygen Absorbers

For a standard 5-gallon bucket filled with dry goods like rice or wheat, you typically need 1,500cc to 2,000cc of oxygen absorption. This means using three to four of these 500cc packets per bucket.

Yes, these are food-grade and FDA-compliant. They are designed to be placed directly into your storage containers with dry food items without posing any safety risks.

Since these absorbers begin working as soon as they are exposed to air, it is critical to seal any unused packets immediately in an airtight container, such as a small Mason jar or a vacuum-sealed bag, to preserve their effectiveness.

Yes, they are compatible with Mason jars. Ensure the jar lid has a high-quality seal to prevent new oxygen from entering, which allows the absorber to effectively reduce the internal oxygen levels.

The packets should feel soft and pliable. If the iron powder inside has become hard or lumpy, it indicates the packet has already been exposed to moisture or air and is no longer effective.

No, the materials inside are odorless and non-toxic. They work by chemically binding with oxygen to create harmless compounds, leaving the flavor and nutritional profile of your food unaffected.
