Heres mine http://www.dehydratorbook.com/salton-dehydrator-dh100a.html It gets em cracker dry in about 5 hours. Then I just put them in an airtight container with a little bowl of epsom salt that has been baked for 2 hours at 450 degrees. I store them for a long time and have never had any problems.

The only rice I have available right now is this Brown Rice I had laying around. Will this be acceptable for drying instead of white rice?

^ If you want cheapest way, go take the desiccant out of the purses from your local clothing store, most any leather product has it. Rice would be shit IMO.

This is what I use: 
If cost is a concern, I'd go with a small space heater. Set it on low-medium (never) high. Place your rack about 6 inches in front of it, at an angle. 24 hours and done. Kinda quick and very easy. I used this method in the past for about a year. Never burnt any or lost potency or anything. Hope that helped!

u can get silica beads with color indicating beads mixed in. it cost me about $12 for 5lbs at pat catans, but you can get them at micheals, or just about any craft store. they are used officially to dry flowers. their cool because the color changes from blue to pink, letting you know its getting saturated. then you throw the silica in the oven, dry it out, and its good as new.
drierite is good too, but i couldnt find any locally, i had to get it online. $25 for 5lbs or somewhere close to that. it also comes in the color indicating form, and can be regenerated. if you want drierite, get it straight from the company, middlemen from what ive seen charge double (or more) for the same thing.

I'm using a lamp + desiccant tube + fan, all in a closet. You can see the desiccant tube in the back left of the second picture. Takes 2 or 3 days for cracker dry, depending on the size of the fruit.

4.2g wet is probably less than .5g dry and a standard dose is 3g dry. Potency probably isn't an issue...

Yeah, I usually take at least 25 or 30g, if I am going to take them fresh... which I like more than dry
