Are you able to place the bags in boiling water to heat up the contents?

I have placed them in boiling water before to heat contents. Just don't let the bag rest against the hot pan out of the water and only Boil long enough to to heat the contents

never tried that - I've put them in a microwave to heat the contents...but that doesn't get as hot as 212

Yes, but I would check food saver website for specifics. They are also safe in the microwave.

Yes! We have done that in our business as well! We have only simmer the bag in low boil but not rolling boil though. It works wonder.

I have used them for veges and home made soup, on Med heat. You need to partially thaw first to make sure there are no holes in the bag. Probably would work for Spaggeti sauce, but I wouldn't boil the water then put the bag and contents in if its a rapid boil. Have to experiment.

The straw inside is stainless steel so yes, you can fill it with boiling hot water.

Yes. With the strong, crimped seal that you get with the VacUpac Elite boiling in that bag is ok to do.

NO... I tried and the bag exploded the steamer bags have tiny holes to let the steam escape ...

Not sure about re-heating in the bags... I defrost in the bags by submerging them in cool then warm water then I transfer to bottles and re-heat at that point

I'm pretty sure you can, since the Vitamix itself can heat up the contents if you run it for about 5 - 6 minutes. And there's a video of a Vitamix representive himself pouring boiling water into it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYqbXoke-F4 At about 14:50.

No, it won't work in the situation you describe. The parchment bags do keep in the majority of juice and moisture, but they are meant for adding a relatively small amount of liquid. I assume you're talking about rehydrating freeze dried food, where you would add a cup or two of boiling water. The paper will completely fall apart.

I think you could but remember it is plastic so I don't think you'd want to put boiling water in it.

I am sure that you can put the bags in boiling water to heat food because I have done it. I would assume that the answer for you is yes, as when you add the water it will be 100 c or 212 F and getting cooler not hotter than the boiling water that I boiled my bags in. I put my bags in boiling water and left them to heat and no melt. So I say give it a shot. Check the bag box. The bags that I buy Foodsaver Brand are made to stay together in boiling water, I don't know about "bargain" brands.

Yes, you can. Coffee makers boil water into the Pot. You can put your tee bag in the pot and fish it out after 5 min.

Please do NOT put boiling water into Mylar bags. Mylar bags are made of several layers, and the bottom one is usually a plastic such as LLDPE. While the material is rated for heat sealing, adding boiling water risks off-gassing something from that layer into your food. It would most likely not be harmful, but boil-in bags are boil-in bags for a reason...they are intended to be boiled, while your typical Mylar Bag is not.

Yes. The instructions tells you to boil parts. I think the only part you can't is the tube.
