These are #SAFAMB

But i'd just make my own. Take any commercial dehydro and take 75% off the tag. Give me the 25% that remain, a week, a workshop and the proper tools and I'll make one of equal quality (but it'll probably be a little less sexy. Like a fat girl with superior intellect, character and personality.)

It'll be a while. My monos are nearing the end of their cycle and I haven't prepped grain in 2 weeks. Been working on Averys albino thats taking forever to clean. On T4 now.

im curious about the top venting!?!?  Ive gotten 8 months out of my heaters before they burn out so time trials will tell.  I currently have 4 diys and they all have 1 heater and 1 fan at the bottom although after 1 day I pull out the bottom trays and move the top ones down to finish drying.  Going to experiment with heat piped in through the back.  We'll see how that works.

I think the fan at the top is beneficial to the life of the heater. You're probably better off keeping the heater external. Mine is internal but separated by a 1/2" of partical board except for the exhaust cutout. Once I get the inkbird controller set up (delivery this Saturday) I'll put another probe in the heater compartment just to see how hot it gets in there.

i think it'll get pretty hot. Many of the heaters i've used for dehrydros shut off when they get too hot. Fuckin sucks.

I drove my wife crazy today on the phone and FaceTime running her out to the garage turning the analog heater down. I watched it for an hour this morning before I left and never got over 160F. 2 hours later she's calling me saying the kids keep asking me wtf is this thing on the counter beeping!?!

God bless technology. Inkbird will make it set and forget.

I doubt any of us have run the proper tests to really say what's best. IT would end up being a balance of speed and efficiency. For sure, it'd be nice to have 160 degree air just fucking blasting over the fruit bodies but balancing that with the energy bill is the key.




That's the head of the nail you just hit right there. Running multiple dehydros off of a generator out in the back country is a woeful state of things. Propane is looking to be the key.
