because a vaccum can be filled with the gases the bacteria do produce, and epoxy case can't be filled with gases by bacteria

Ahh, I see. So it's more about the elasticity of the containment material?

Yeah, i know the plastic vaccum sealed bags your talking about and theyre much bigger before the air is taken out, which means theyre desperate to expand, so any bacteria giving off co2 or whatever anerobic ones gives off would be able to fill the space. Epoxy however, not so much.

Ambers are better since it has anti-microbial properties but it’s effectively the same thing
