Food dydrator
    #5653270 - 05/20/06 12:57 PM (17 years, 8 months ago)

So i'm considering on buying a food dydrator to dry my mushrooms
Anything I should know on which kind to buy, potency loss, etc?
Also would any cheap food dydrator work?

I too recommend for everyone to own a nesco american harvest.
not the entree edition, but that will work too.

don't bother with this thing.

that is the entree version.
it will work but there is no adjustable heat control.
I like to keep mine at 97 degrees.
I have one like this too, but it is not compatable with the other two.

I'd go with one that is adjustable from on top like I linked you to, or the one that is over 100 which if you keep looking can be had for around 30

I too use a Nesco brand. i just opened it up and removed the heating element. (takes about 1 to 1 & 1/2 days the fully dry one tray worth)

no real potency difference at all.

I guess anything under 400 degrees is okay to dry with.
I just like to be safe.

Never dried with much heat before, and don't want to start now.
I too dismantled the heating coil on my entree version.
