Whats Minimal RH in an addict for 100% fan dry?
    #8455919 - 05/28/08 04:22 PM (15 years, 9 months ago)

I'm fan drying mushies in an addict with just a fan, and all the mushrooms are being put into a laundry basket the whole time which provides great aeration.

I also know that mushrooms will never be 100% dry unless they are fan drying in an area with a specific RH level.

My initial question was what is the minimal RH to succeed doing this?

Thanks all
Drips

In an addict huh? Up his butt or what? I think you mean attic.

I replied in detail to the thread you just deleted, and it was all for nothing. I won't type it all over again.

Change the word addict to attic and you might make sense. In addition, you want to know the MAXimum humidity in which they'll dry, not minimum. Obviously, the lower the humidity the faster they'll dry.

do what my friend does. make a desiccant chamber out of an 18 gal tupperware tub (like a small monotub without holes) and some damp rid, and run a small fan inside of it. i don't know if this is an accepted method or anything, but it gets the job done fast. he is actually using an air filter that fits in the tub because he doesn't own a fan, but it circulates the extremely dry air.

by the way, you deleted a thread that RR responded to in detail? that's just bad for everyone, man. i know i personally try to search out his answers, and you made one less available. no good. try my idea, though. trust me.

In general, the key to using any desiccant is to first fan dry the mushrooms. Buy a cheap fan, and place the mushrooms on the grill of the fan so air blows through the pile for 24 to 48 hours. If you live in a dry climate (40% relative humidity or lower) your mushrooms will dry completely out using this technique and you won't even need a desiccant. If you aren't that lucky, you should continue the drying process using a desiccant. Just place the mushrooms on a screen right above the desiccant of choice in an airtight container. If you want to push your desiccant to warp speed (several times faster), use a tiny fan on low speed inside the airtight drying container to gently circulate the air
