Re:Archimedes method and Drybag

[Scott Mark]

Having seen the hair on your arms in the photos — yes, gloves are probably a good idea.

I think I’m following RRP’s idea on the transfer. I do a full-on sanitization of the sink, then I make a slit top-to bottom in the purchased cryovac bag, and ALL along the bottom, and also all along the top. This allows “excess” liquids to drain, while leaving the sub-primal fully moist.

I don’t know if I’ll use the archimedes method, but I think that for sure I’ll try to vacuum the next (big) bag with the meat VERTICAL, considering that air tends to rise in water.
