Setting of temperature
In addition to the off setting, the on/off button has 3 settings:
•
Setting 1 - 55°C - for food that contains little water, such as spices, mushrooms,
etc.
•
Setting 2 - 65°C - for food that contains an average amount of water, such as
apples, apricots, etc.
•
Setting 3 - 75°C - for food that contains a lot of water, such as red beets, fish, etc.
Duration
The drying time depends on the type of food, how large and how thick the pieces
are, the amount of water in the food, how much is placed on the drying trays, the
temperature and humidity of the room where the machine is, etc. It is difficult to
determine an exact drying time. Check the food regularly and always check
whether the food you are drying is actually completely dry. This can be done by
breaking the food into pieces or squeezing it firmly. No more moisture should appear.
Fruit may be sticky, but it should not slide away from your fingers when you squeeze
it. The pulp of the fruit should not move any more.
The table below gives you indications of drying times and drying settings for a
number of products, to help you get started. Of course, you may experiment; the
possibilities are endless.
