I am having problems with my vacuum sealer not creating a proper vacuum with the Umai bags. The sealer starts before there is a correct vacuum achieved.
Can I overcome this by using the VacMouse the full width of the bag.
My sealer is very good with the ribbed vacuum bags. I have posted a picture below to show what the Coppa looked like after being vacuumed in the ribbed bag for about 12 hours.
Matter of fact I looking at some Italian vacuum sealers where the vacuum and the timer are adjustable.
Any members with the same problems as me.

I have found that you do need the vac mouse with the UMAi bags to pull a vac on the bags. I also find that if you have a larger UMAi bag, place the vac mouse from one factory sealed edge inward to where the vac mouse stops, then make a corner angle seal there. Then place the vac mouse from the sealed edge to where you made the angle seal and then vac your UMAi bag using the mouse. I see you say your sealer started before the vac happened? Is your sealer the auto start, meaning when you place the end of the bag into the sealer its starts? Remember the vac bags with the cross hatches will draw more air from the bags.
