PROBLEM SOLVING
PROBLEM: Moisture in the storage container.
CAUSE: Incomplete Drying.
Food is cut unevenly, causing incomplete or uneven drying. Drying foods left at room temperature too long after cooling, allows moisture to re-enter the foods.
PREVENTION: Test several pieces of food for dryness before removing it from the Dehydrator.
Cut foods evenly.
Cool quickly and package immediately in an air-tight container.
__________________________________________________________________
PROBLEM: Mold is on the dehydrated food.
CAUSE: Incomplete Drying.
The food was not checked for moisture content within a week. The storage container is not air-tight.
The storage temperature is too warm.
Case hardening may have occurred, meaning the food was dried at too high of a temperature and the food was only dry on the outside, not the inside.
PREVENTION: Test several pieces of food for dryness before removing it from the Dehydrator.
__________________________________________________________________
PROBLEM: Brown spots on vegetables.
CAUSE: Too high of a drying temperature was used. Food is over-dry.
PREVENTION: Dry foods at appropriate temperatures. Use the “Drying Guide” on the Control Panel as reference. Check foods often for dryness.
__________________________________________________________________
PROBLEM: Food sticking to Trays.
CAUSE: Food is not being turned over during the dehydration process.
PREVENTION: After one hour of dehydrating, use a spatula and flip the food. Flip the food often until it is no longer sticky.
