Drying Times

The following charts are guidelines for the preparation of various fruits, vegetables and meats.
Drying times will vary depending on the room temperature, relative humidity and moisture
levels in the food that you are drying. If the moisture level is low, the drying time will be on
the low end of the range. However, if the moisture level is high, the drying time will be on the
high end of the range.
Keep in mind that drying times are also affected by the amount of food placed on the
shelves. Overloading the shelves will slow the drying time and may produce poorer results.
When dehydrating foods, it is important to check on the dryness of the product. If the prod-
uct is not thoroughly dried, mould may form during storage (see Food Storage). To test for
dryness, remove a piece of food from the dehydrator and allow it to cool to room tempera-
ture. Bend and tear the piece to check for internal moisture.
