As part of our food preservation series, we thought we would share a novel way to keep your dry goods in good condition for a very long time. This is an experiment we are doing this year but we expect it should work well and it is easy and cheap: We are storing our dry food in a CO2 environment. This is great for anyone needing to keep foods fresh a long time, whether you are heading off on a long sailing trip or preparing for the zombie apocalypse.
This works by keeping your food away from oxygen and keeping a high enough CO2 level around it to kill any bugs that might have contaminated the food.
In this video, Clark explains the science and gives a demonstration.
## One year report ##
Everything is perfect. Jasmine rice still smells like flowers. No issues, we will continue to use this method. I’ll report again next year if we still have product, eating a lot of stores due to Covid.
One note, small amounts of carbonic acid is being produced. Water + CO2 = carbonic acid. Pro food preservation guys say (in the comments) that this is helpful. I’ve noticed no change in food quality at all.

BougeRV 2000w Inverter Review
My old test inverter died when I connected it to the Solid State Marine battery.

NMC vs LFP (LiFePO4) which is Safer
Ever wonder if LFP (LiFePO4) is really safer than NMC lithium ion batteries. In this video I drive two similar sized cells to thermal runaway or full breakdown. We find out if LFP is safer than NMC and you can decide if NMC is worth having. NMC is more power dense but it has a markedly shorte...
