Hello, Andrew.
First of all, sorry for the delayed response. You will get a much quicker answer on of new Help Center, umaidry.com/help.
You can certainly hold the meat at target weight in a zip lock or air tight container. The benefit of vacuum sealing is that you eliminate the small, mold-welcoming environment that these two storage options invite.
You might try putting in zip lock, then using the water immersion method to press the air out, and bring the plastic into best contact with the surface of the salumi.
Hope this helps.
