Dehydrating TIPS
Do not overlap food while placing on trays or overll the trays. Leave adequate
space for air circulation between the food items.
Please wash all fruits, herbs and vegetables as well as trimming all visible fat off
meats before placing in SmartStore Dehydrator.
Throughout the dehydration cycle, you can carefully remove the Lid and rearrange
the Food Trays for more even dehydration. For example, every few hours, you can move the top tray to the bottom to circulate the trays throughout the dehydration cycle.
Temperatures and times are approiximate because it depends on humidity and
moisture of each food’s environment
Check foods periodically to make sure they do not get overdried.
If not served immediately, store dried foods made in the SmartStore Dehydrator in
an airtight container and put in refrigerator.
