How to use

Arrange cleaned and sliced produce evenly on the trays, avoiding overlap to ensure adequate airflow. Stack the required number of trays, place the herb mat on a tray when drying small leaves, and close the transparent cover. Set the desired temperature between 40 and 70 °C and program the timer for 1 to 36 hours depending on product and thickness. Check progress occasionally and rotate or rearrange trays if necessary for even drying. Allow items to cool before storing in airtight containers.

Recommendations

For best results, pre-treat certain fruits (e.g., citrus or apples) with a short blanch or lemon juice dip to prevent oxidation. Start with a lower temperature and increase if drying time is long; store dried foods in a cool, dark, airtight place.
