You could throw em on for a few hours at the lowest setting and probably get super cracker dry. If you only fan dried them then you may want to do that. Every time I fan dried, even up to 48 hours later they seemed moist still

When you use a fan, it depends on the humidity in the air that you are using as to how dry the mushrooms will get. If you are fanning with air that is high in humidity, you are wasting your time.
If you added super dry desiccant, it will help to pull additional moisture out.
Remember that a very very small amount of water left in your mushrooms will throw off the dry weight measurement significantly.

I’d weigh them and put them in the dehydrator for a few hours and see if they lose weight. That’ll let you know how well they were dried.

For sure on all of your future grows.
A little dehydrator is one of the cheapest yet one of the most essential parts of the whole process. Lots of time and mush has been wasted due to cutting corners on the home stretch. You already did all the work, let a 30 dollar dehydrator protect all your efforts.
You can do a lot with a little table top presto, check out my sig for a link to my 5 gallon bucket mod.
