I use a dehydrator too, and love it. Although I have a superstition about using the heat on it. I leave my at 95 degrees (the minimum)

Do any of you guys use heat to dry?

The actives in mushrooms do not break down until FAR past 300F, while most dehydrators do not make it past 165F.

Heat is not what you should worry about, but the amount of time they are exposed to oxygen after harvesting, the quicker you can get them cracker dry and sealed up, the better. The more heat you use, the faster they will become cracker dry.

I use my dehydrator @ 155F for 18-20 hours sometimes, with no noticeable potency loss.
