Oxygen Absorbers add life and longevity to your food storage items. Properly canned items using oxygen absorbers benefit from significantly extended shelf life and freshness. Our Oxygen Absorbers completely eliminate residual oxygen in your sealed packages, keeping products fresh and preventing discoloration. Used widely in the Food Service Industry to preserve foods like beef jerky, nuts, grains, flour, and just about any dried or wet foods. Our 200 pack of 300cc High Efficiency Oxygen Absorbers is effective for about 200 #10 cans or 50 5 gallon buckets filled with beans, grains or flours.
Oxygen Absorbers:
Activated by air regardless of moisture levels
Start working fast (in about an hour)
Can be used with both moist and dry foods
Each bag of Oxygen Absorbers includes two hundred individual absorber packets. These are type 300cc High Efficiency Oxygen Absorbers. Plan to use oxygen absorbers within 6 months of purchase as they will lose effectiveness after that time. Oxygen absorbers will begin to work as soon as the plastic outer packaging (do not open the individual packets) is opened. Please plan ahead and either use all of the absorbers or seal the remaining packets in an airtight glass mason jar. This will cause the packets to stop working until air is introduced again.
Thoughts on Oxygen Absorbers:
I sell 300cc absorbers. They will absorb 300+ cc of oxygen. A #10 can holds 13 cups or very roughly 3300cc. Air is 21% oxygen. So that empty 3300cc #10 can actually has about 683cc of oxygen in it. If you take a full cup of beans it takes about 0.375 cups of water to bring the water level up to the top of the cup. This is true with most of the whole seeds I've measured including wheat and rice. This figure is important because it also tells you how much air is in the can when it is full of seeds - 37.5%. With a #10 can full of these products, you now have about 256cc of oxygen left in the can. If you are canning a powder you will have less air than this but foods like macaroni will have more. I use one (or two for items that leave more air space such as pasta) 300cc absorber in each of my #10 cans as I'd rather have a bit of overkill than a little oxygen left in the can in case the absorber becomes loaded.
A 6 gal bucket holds 22,740cc. Going through the above calculations, a full 6 gal bucket of grain or beans has about 1791cc oxygen left in the container at sea level. You will need four of our absorbers if you are packing up your food at lower elevations. However, because these oxygen absorbers are so inexpensive and the food you are most likely trying to preserve is usually expensive (not only in cost, but in terms of the impact it would have on your family if it was spoiled the one time you really needed to use it in a real emergency), a little bit of over kill is probably not a bad thing, and maybe 2 to 3 absorbers per can would be a wise thing to do. At least that's what I do at our house.
I have been doing a lot of food storage at our house and have a lot of information about food storage times and different ways to store food. Please email me if you have any questions. I'd love to help you out.
Just To Clarify:
These are the real deal. I have done extensive research on the various oxygen absorbers out there and these are genuine 300cc oxygen absorbers. They are top of the line, first rate products bought through reliable trusted companies who have been in the business for decades and stake their reputation on these products. Please don't let scare tactics and misrepresentation convince you to spend more money when you don't need to.
These are the very oxygen absorbers I use in my food storage and I count on them to work and work right.

? No cooking or preparation! Just add water. ? 126 #10 cans that come in 21 easy to store cases. ? 100% Freeze-Dried food for the highest quality and shelf life available. ? Up to a 30 Year Shelf-Life! ? Trusted gourmet quality from the Saratoga Farms and Mountain House brands!
Saratoga Farms™ and Mountain House™ freeze-dried foods are second to none in terms of quality and taste. Freeze-Dried foods offer many advantages over dehydrated foods. To Begin with they taste much better because through the freeze-drying process the foods retain their taste, texture, and shape of fresh frozen foods. In addition, freeze-drying locks in the freshness, vitamins, nutrients, color, and aroma of fresh frozen foods while providing the shelf-stable convenience of canned and dehydrated foods.
All the contents of our Saratoga Farms™ and Mountain House™ food storage units are 100% FREEZE-DRIED FOOD with a 30-YEAR SHELF LIFE. Other companies will sell an ""Ultimate"" Year Supply and add additional cans of dehydrated food with high sugar content, inferior quality and a significantly shorter shelf life to increase the number of cans so they can sell it at a higher price. Those additional cans of dehydrated food add bulk, but lack the quality, shelf-life, and nutritional value that freeze-dried food provides you.
At The Ready Store, we always focus on the QUALITY of our products first, rather than quantity because we want you to get the best value for your hard-earned money.

That's because Mountain House® has been recognized as the best tasting freeze dried meals. Mountain House®, is convenient, easy to prepare and has a long shelf life.
What is the shelf life of Mountain House #10 cans?
Cans offer a 25+ year shelf life. Mountain House employees have personally tasted product that is 35 years old and it still tastes great! After opening, we recommend using the contents within 2 to 3 weeks for best results and taste. Use the convenient resealable plastic lid between uses. Treat any leftover food as you would fresh food.
Mountain House Freeze-Dried Foods is the perfect food for your backpacking and camping trips.
There is only two places that I would ever buy freeze dried 10 cans from and that is either Nitro-Pak or eBay. If you want to get a deal I would buy #10 cans from eBay, you would only be sacrificing a few shelf life years. But if you want the longest shelf life I would buy it from Nitro-Pak, they offer free shipping as well.
