Question about this dehydrator?
    #18801265 - 09/04/13 09:57 PM (10 years, 5 months ago)

I am planning on ordering this off amazon

http://www.amazon.com/Nesco-American-Harvest-FD-37-Dehydrator/dp/B003I4F7AS/ref=sr_1_5?s=kitchen

Since its cheap and has good reviews my only concern is the preset temperature for this dehydrator is 160 degrees Fahrenheit and I am worried that that is to hot and that the shrooms will become less potent....

Do you think that temp is fine and there will be no or barely any potency lost if I use this dehydrator?

What temperature does that dry at because I just poked around some forums and some people were on the edge about 95 degrees never mind 160 degrees. So are you positive and do you have experience with temps in that range?

i set mine to 135. some people dry in the oven with the door open with way higher temps.

the quicker you dry them the better. Potency is lost by exposure to oxygen and light

So I am probably going to be using it for small amounts like 50 grams WET and I think it should take about 8 hours in that dehydrator that I am getting. That sound about right?


So I think they will be dried before loss of potency is an issue.

I have the one in the link. Had to get it in a pinch after my adjustable nesco went out.  I conferred with a few other memebers who also use it and have no complaints.  I have no complaints.  Sometimes I don't use the top tray though.  I did go ahead and purchase another adjustable like my old one, used , from ebay.  Love Nesco.
