Yes! You can open and reseal with any lids you have at home. The Mason Genie™ doesn’t damage the lids.

We are including 10 extra lids with the kit so you have extra lids in case you threw yours out!

It usually takes about 20 to 40 seconds to create an airtight seal between the lid and the mason jar.

You don’t need to keep your hand on the Mason Genie™ when it’s creating the seal so you can do other things as it’s sealing.

Canners commonly utilize the Mason Genie™ to seal all their dry or dehydrated goods stored in the pantry.

However, it's important to note that while Mason Genie™ creates airtight seals suitable for preserving foods in mason jars, it is not a replacement for canning or the long-term preservation of perishable goods. Proper canning requires specific heat processing methods to ensure food safety and preservation.

The Mason Genie™ is versatile and suitable for preserving a wide range of foods, including:

-  Dry Goods: Grains, cereals, pasta, rice, flour, sugar, coffee beans, tea leaves, nuts, seeds, and dried fruits.

- Liquids: Soups, sauces, broths, marinades, salad dressings, oils, vinegars, and syrups.

- Homemade Creations: Jams, jellies, pickles, chutneys, sauces, and preserves.

- Non-Perishables: Herbs, spices, and seasonings.

By creating airtight seals, Mason Genie™ helps prevent pantry pests like flour beetles, moths, and weevils from infiltrating stored foods, reducing the risk of infestations and preserving food quality.

It is not recommended for use with highly carbonated or foamy liquids, as they may cause excess pressure buildup during the vacuum sealing process.

Additionally, it is not suitable for preserving foods that require long-term canning or heat processing.

We are obsessed with your satisfaction and truly believe you’ll love your Mason Genie™. That's why your order is secured with our 100% satisfaction guarantee.

If for some reason you’re not completely satisfied with your order, we will offer you a full refund excluding the return shipping cost. Simply reach out to our customer success team at support@masongenie.com.
