You are all so encouraging!. I started canning moose and salmon in Alaska over 50 years ago. Now I can everything I can get my hands on. I source jars at garage sales, thrift stores, from people who no longer can, etc. A good thing about canning beans and veggies, etc., is that the liquid you need to eat them with is already in the jar. This saves water. I learned several good ideas on this channel. Praise the Lord and pass the beans!

Sheila, you may know this already, but I wanted to mention it anyway. When your canning jars are empty, store water in them. Just use a clean used lid and a ring. When you're ready to use the jar for canning, dump the water. Maybe use it to water a potted plant. This way, you have extra stored water for emergencies while your jars are not in use.

I have one bucket each of beans and rice. The rest is split up between vacuum sealed and put in totes. Each tote contains beans, rice, freeze dried mixed veggies, spices we use and bullion cubes. I store enough water for each tote to be able to cook them. I also think it's easier for when family or friends needing help to keep things individually packaged and I keep certain names on the totes for those I may need to help.

We store beans by vacuum sealing. They're then placed in a cool dark basement. Just made ham and bean soup last week with Great Northern Beans from 2016. Love 15-bean soup! IIRC, we talked about this 2-3 years ago. I bought individual bags of beans (legumes!) in 15 varieties and blended and vacuum sealed in 1-lb packs. Then found an 38-ounce bottle of ham seasoning powder (to be added when beans are cooked). Calculated savings of 80 cents a bag, so saved $12 over the pre-packaged mixes. Ok, not enough to let me buy a condo in Florida, but it was actually a fun process. There's a couple ham bones in the freezer which need to be cooked down - canning ham and bean soup this week - you did a video on that, too! Going to check out the Wallaby bags - thank you!

I have stored beans in a plastic ice cream bucket for up to fifteen years and they were just fine. Also I put my rice in the freezer for a couple days and then I leave them in the bag in a plastic container. As long as it's stored in a cool dry dark place, they will last a long long time. That's how my dad stored rice and beans and that's how I store rice and beans. They didn't have mylar bags when I was a kid and there were fourteen of us kids.

Me too! Quart jars work for my small family. It means less plastic waste. Also, I don't need to repackage when I move a jar to my kitchen. I keep two boxes of quarts in a legal file drawer. One case for legumes and one for rice and other grains. That's somewhere between 18 and 24 lbs of various legumes in one case of jars. I use O2 absorbers. Some of my beans are quite old, but still cook up well after using this method. Packaging can be folded and put in the jar or taped to outside if desired. In the Fall, I refill empties, because that's when the crops come in and inventories are their freshest. Personally, I mostly use canned beans.

I have canned beans for convenience; and store dried beans on the counter in mason jars (first use beans) or in their original packaging in a cabinet. As a single senior, buckets of beans are simply "overkill".

Thank you for sharing all the different ways! I will vacu-seal some and I put some in 5 gallon buckets with gamma seal lids. It's encouraging to hear I'm not doing it the "wrong" way, as some videos suggested. I also appreciate that we can vacu-seal in the original package. I started doing that after dumping some out. It seemed to make more sense, then I watched a video saying that was not correct and I wondered why. The only explanation given was that there could be some "water" in it from the grocery store, but my beans were dry, so it left me confused. At that point I started putting things in buckets (which does work for my large family) and I was hoping the others would be ok. Again, thank you for sharing ALL the different ways to do it. You are right, there are more than one way to do things!

Plus I'm a canner & I just bought 20 cases of quart jars used (on top of still having at least 75 left in my stash from the last purchase of over 150.

I think bean flour is from cooked, dehydrated beans.

So many people here are saying to use an instapot (bean setting), & they turn out perfect. You can also add baking soda to soften them & cook for an extra day. I have some 15 year old beans that got misplaced we tried cooking & were just hard that I'm gonna try out these methods on to see if I can salvage the beans... I just didn't have the heart to toss out a whole Tupperware bucket, as it's such a waste. Probably should've stored it differently, but I was just beginning & it was airtight. Guess I'll see.

I have 5lbs of just about every kind of bean and legume imaginable, most stored in mylar bags or glass jars in my cellar (which is always cool to very cold . I am vegan and we eat a lot of a beans, so 5lbs is not too much for us to reasonably go through. To save storage and freezer space (I was sometimes keeping quart size bags of cooked beans in my chest freezer) I will sometimes batch cook a quantity of beans in my instant pot and then dehydrate them. I do this with rice, especially brown rice, as well, for quick rehydrating on busy days.

thank you for your great content! I have been putting off getting milar bags because I have just been using food saver bags or canning jars sealed with the food saver for beans/rice/legumes. I'll get some of the Walaby bags to try out.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge of storing beans. I have a medium sized plastic tub with bags of beans/legumes in my pantry. I also have a few store bought canned beans, and home canned beans and bean soups. I don't have any long-term storage. I will also have a garden to grow more beans. Beans will be coming out of my ears. 😆 I just recently purchased a vacuum sealer, and I received a Cosori dehydrator for Christmas. I'm planning on cooking and dehydrating beans. I'm going to make bean flour, too, and add to baked goods. I'm in the beans this year. 😆

I home can beans, have them dry with oxygen absorbers and also in cans. I am learning to rotate. I grew up with rice and beans as main staples.

Now that we are retired and seldom can things in quarts any more, I utilize my quart jars for dry goodcwhich I vacuum. Using the undamaged used canning lids they store well in a dark cool srorage space set aside for food storage in our small home.

I found some beans that my mom put up in the mid 1980s that were put up in plastic pastry buckets using dry ice to get the carbon dioxide which displays the oxygen and the beans tasted just fine just took a little longer to rehydrate them When using the dry ice method be careful to leave the lid open a little bit to relieve the pressure to displace the oxygen don't wanna create a pressure bomb which will blow your Lid off before the dry ice has off gased all the co2

Thank you so much for your video. I found a Hair gizmo at the Thrift Store that works like a charm to seal the bags, BUT! it does tend to get a little hot so I unplug it before that happens. The great thing about the iron is that it's temp controlled. Have a great one and good luck.

I like your idea of keeping the beans in the bag & glad to know to cut of corner to truly seal. A lot of less writing on bags for recipes of idems. I don't like the idea of wasting jars on dried beans. I have got to start this. Tks.

I oven can mine in quart canning jars. One jar will provide multiple meals of beans for my wife and I. Three or four jars of a variety of beans is easily a years worth of beans at the cost of the jar seals. I also can rice, oats, hash browns, flour and more to keep them shelf stable for years.
