Carley, from your description the fridge you are using must not have a dehumidification function. This may be the biggest problem with the product not drying correctly. As for the bags opening, I would recommend sealing the bags twice or if necessary three times in the same place (Dry melts at a higher temperature than ordinary vacuum bags) like described in this video: https://youtu.be/oXb9T2qHOJA UMAi
