Talkin bout excaliburs? That'd be a good option too I guess... But I like the idea of scaling it up big and using my own racks.

With that 200bux you could build one mean, gigantic dehydrator and probably not even spend half. Downside is you'd have to build it of course but it's hella worth it if you go through a bunch of tubs constantly.
Edit:
And comon tripdawg, don't tell me you like to use a desiccant chamber? Fuck, even an oven is faster and more comfortable.

What's wrong with an oven?
Dehydrator, you have a set of racks, a heat source and a fan.
Oven, you have a set of racks, a heat source and a fan.
Seems awfully the same to me. The lowest setting on your oven is perfectly capable of drying a bunch of shrooms at a time. Even more so than any desiccant chamber I have seen anyway in terms of quantity. Oven drying is how I used to get it done before I bought my dehydrator, the only downside is that you have to check on it from time to time.
Please don't say it will effect potency. And I really do mean please.

yeah, oven is way better than desiccant chamber.. do you really use desiccant chambers? that's gotta be more expensive over time than getting a dehydrator? to each their own, i guess.

if it were me, i would just be too worried that they would all rot from not getting 100% dry. but, if it works for you, then that's great. doesnt that take a long time to do, though? that would turn me off from doing it that way, too. i mean, $30 bucks for a dehydrator, was a great purchase, IMO, since i can guarantee they are getting 100% dry, and will not rot or loose potency.
but like i said, if it works for you, then great. we all know that you arent a noob, so you know what youre doing =]
but i would still advise noobs(like myself) to get a dehydrator.

Taking pics of shrooms drying in an oven? Why would I wanna do that? It's like taking a pic of every pie you bake. 
I can tell you though, my oven isn't big or anything but I can dry multiple times the amount in it than I can in a dehydrator. You don't even have to do single layer, you just pile the shrooms on the racks and let it rip.
I can easily see that harvest you posted not even taking half the space in an normal sized oven. I've never really filled it completely when I was using it exlusively. Nowadays I only fire it up if I fill my dehydrator completely and have a bunch more to dry.

Only convection ovens have fans. Conventional which are the norm (note the conventional name) just rely on heat.

for those you can point a fan at the oven door, with the door open a little.

Lol if I ever have to use a fan and an oven to dry shrooms, I'll make sure it's the last time. I'll be making my own dehydrator at that exact moment.

Fan assisted ovens are actually more popular around here. Haven't seen a normal oven for a while.

If the "growing mushrooms" section of the site is ever updated, the person doing it should read this. That is likely the core cause of people asking the same questions year after year.
All the good info is buried in the forum, would sure be nice to link it to the "main site" someday. Remedy this problem for good
