Marinade Express

The Marinade Express is a food processing device that is based upon the Grovac process. The device is a vacuum tumbler, featuring a food safe vacuum chamber, and a motor drive which can rotate the vacuum chamber. The food is loaded into the chamber and exposed to low atmospheric pressure. By tumbling the chamber, the food transitions in and out of a slightly acidic marinade solution. The cells of the food product are exposed to high/low pressure cycles which have a variety of beneficial effects.

The Grovac process helps food taste better and kills bacteria. The food that is processed, especially meat, will take on liquid, leading to juicier cooked food.
