can you reuse the chocolate or do you need a new bag each time???

You can if you want but I believe it would be unsanitary and unhealthy. It might be better to use a smaller amount and add oil and throw away the remainder.

I add small amounts, what I think I mAY WANT TO use. Have not tried to let it set and reheat it.

The molds use a lot of chocolate you are referring to. I don't know an actual amount but would say one bag might do 1 mold of 6 oreos. Maybe 1.5 if you stretch it with Crisco or oil. I bought 2 molds and ended up not using them b/c they took too much chocolate.

You need to order the foodsaver baggies. There is a cut out that you attach the vacuum to in order to pull out the air. Depending on what you put in them they can be washed, dried well and reused i.e. Veggies, baked goods. I wouldn't reuse bags that had any meat, fish or poultry due to potentional cross contamination. Hope this helps.

Yes, just once. I suppose if you oiled it you might be able to reuse, however they are designed to be used as a gift or transportable with one use in it's design. The sides tend to hold on to a tiny bit of the baked product as well.

It is unsafe to re-use any kind of bag in cooking, especially sous vide. Don't do it. Just consider them an expendable item.

I guess they could be reused, depending on what was stored in them, you could cut them open and reseal them. I use them mainly to freeze meat. Therefore, you would not want to reuse them. I don't think I would reuse them at all because of bacteria from foods. Also they are great quality bags.

No. The bags are biodegradable (compostable) so they cannot be re-used. Mine last about a week if I'm careful not to put too much wet stuff in the bin. Longer than that and the bags start to degrade and leak. Shelf life, however, seems to be quite good. They begin to break down only after being in contact with organics.

No, the bags are not reusable. However, if you wrap individual portions and then place them in the bag, you can remove portions and reseal the bag.

I buy mine once every six months or so and I transfer it to about 6 ziplock style bags where I use approx 2 cups a week for baking and I haven't had an issue in nearly two years.

It can be reused, but I would not suggest doing so, if you have diluted it, or if it has been contaminated by bits/fibers of whatever you're dipping into it.

I have reused them 2 times so far. I do not know how many times they can be reused though.

I do!! most of the time it works, sometimes I redo the edges, but for the most part OK. You have to cut some off, I just put small portions in the used bags.

You can, but you can probably empty out the old pieces and put the new "fresh" filler in their place. I would assume they would take up more space and fill out your bag. Notice, I did purchase two of them.Good Luck.

Hi Dina, I have reused them several times over. I keep them in the tray they come in, use a ziploc bag to store them in, and keep refrigerated.

Yes, the bags can be reused, as long as there is enough bag left at the top to allow for sealing and closing. The sealing/closing requires about 2-3" of space at the top of the bag. I would only reuse these with the same item and never with meat of any kind.

I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to do that but it is not really necessary since they are dried out and not prone to mold, etc. I have had the same bag for over a year and they are totally fine and just as fresh as when I got them. I just close it up really well and then stick the sack into another bag and keep that closed up good also. That's all you need to do.

If the bag is cut long enough to use it again, wash it out and it will be good. I cut them extra long off the roll so I can use them two or three times.
