How is pouring some dessicants in a tub and putting a fan with a dehydrator a lot of work? Sure heat works fine if you want to do that route. Dessicants are pretty much useless unless you seal it up (with a bag) because it just pulls moisture out of the air from everwhere.

You put your fan pointing up but I bet it takes longer for your top ones to dry because your just blowing the moisture back into them.

maybe Im crazy.



You still have me a little confused.So you don't turn on your dehydrator or does your dehydrator not get warm?I'm trying to figure out why you need all three to dry your mushrooms when anyone of them will dry them by themselves.If it works stick to it.Also how fast do they dry by using 3 drying methods at once?
You never know if you come back and say like 2 hours to dry,,Ill start doing it..:grin:

Rolling them up in a piece of gauze and and sticking them in a grate of the box fan works good.

I should have been more specific. I use to be in damp conditions (a basement) when drying. I use to use only a fan but it seems to take forever. I took the heating element out of my dehydrator.

Basically I just wanted the trays. Stacking them and pointing the fan down lets the moisture evaporate and it is pushed to the bottom where the dessicants seal it up. This all has to be done in a sealed chamber though or else it would never end.

When ever I take the dry mushrooms out, they are literally warm to the touch from the dessicants.

Takes me about a day with a dehydrater. Never tried anything else because this way works great!
