Dehydrator Recommendation

[eeneR 3]

I am looking at getting a dehydrator for fruit/veggies and jerky.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Paulagc has been using hers quite a bit, PM her to see what brand it is.

My momma said I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an a$$hole.

How much are you looking to spend?

We have a Nesco/American Harvest that was around $30 at Walmart. I wish it had a temperature control and it's round so fruit rollups are a bit of a pain to set up, but other than that it's worked quite well.

I have done a little bit of research and am willing to spend a little bit of money.

From what I have read the square ones with the fan/heater either on top or on the side are best.

I use the Excaliber. Get the 9 shelf with self-timer. And order extra teflex sheets. They are worth it. I use mine on a daily basis.

I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama

Oh yeah - and Eloy Winter Weather.

My lips were cracked for a month after that trip.

We did a blind taste test New Years with the Costco Kirkland (distilled in France) vodka, and for 1/2 the price of Grey Goose, it is a serious deal.

We drank lots of it. scientific testing, you know.

In the below recipe, Alton Brown uses a box fan and furnace filters as a food dehydrator. Might want to check it out. It also has his recipe for Bee Jerky, too.

Definitely the Excalibur and indeed, get the extra teflex sheets. I have 5 trays with a timer and temperature control and it does the trick for me.

Let's go to candy mountain.
