OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

IT IS IMPORTANT TO READ & UNDERSTAND all of the instructions and safeguards prior to using the Dehydrator.

Operate the Dehydrator on a clean, dry surface.
Plug the Dehydrator into a standard 120 Volt, 60 Hz wall outlet.
Position the Dehydrator at least 6” (15 cm) from any wall during operation to allow for proper air circulation. WARNING! DO NOT block the air vents at the rear of the Dehydrator.

Turn the Dehydrator to “I” on. When on, the light should illuminate the Power Switch.
Adjust the Temperature Control Knob to the desired temperature.
Preheat the Dehydrator for 5-10 minutes at the desired temperature before loading food onto the Trays.

Remove any excess water from the food (this can be done by patting the food with a paper towel or napkin). Excess moisture may cause the Dehydrator temperature to drop.
Load the Trays with the items to be dried. Position the pieces so that they do not touch each other. Do not overlap or allow the product to touch. Allow ample space between the products for proper air circulation.
Water droplets may form on the surface of some products while dehydrating. Periodically blot the product with a clean paper towel.
NOTE: Drying times may vary based on many circumstances including but not limited to: the relative humidity of the room, the temperature of the food at the beginning of the drying process, the amount of food in the Dehydrator, the leanness of the meat, etc.

CHOOSING FOODS

Use the best quality foods. Fruits and vegetables in peak season have more nutrients and more flavor. Meat, fish and poultry should be lean and fresh.
Do not use food with bruises or blemishes. Bad fruits and vegetables may spoil the entire batch.
Always use lean meat. Remove as much fat as possible before dehydrating. NOTE: Use a paper towel under meat when dehydrating to absorb fat.

CAUTION! It is important to follow the “Food Safety” guidelines outlined in this manual. For the most up to date instruction visit the USDA website.

PRE-TREATMENT OF FOODS

As with most types of cooking, proper preparation is essential for successful results. Adhering to a few basic guidelines will generally increase the quality of your dried foods and decrease the amount of time necessary to dry them.
Pre-treated foods often taste better and have a better appearance than non-treated foods. There are several methods to pre-treat food to prevent oxidation, which will darken apples, pears, peaches and bananas while drying.

Remove any pits, skin, cores or bones.

Shred, slice or dice the food uniformly. Slices should be between 1/8-1/4” (0.3-0.6 cm) thick. Meats should be cut not more than 3/4” (1.9 cm) thick.
IMPORTANT: Before placing the meat in a Dehydrator, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to heat the meat to 160oF (71oC), poultry to 165oF (74oC), as measured with a food thermometer in an oven BEFORE starting the dehydration process. This step assures that any bacteria present will be destroyed by wet heat. After heating to 160oF (71oC), poultry to 165oF (74oC), maintain a constant dehydrator temperature of 130-140oF (55-60oC) during the drying process. The minimum recommended temperature for drying meats is 145oF (63oC). Temperatures below 145oF (63oC) are NOT recommended.
Steam or bake the fish at 200’F (93’C) until flaky before dehydrating..

Drying into jerky requires a lot of attention. It must be cleaned and de-boned properly and rinsed thoroughly to ensure that all the blood is washed away.
Soak cut fruit in either lemon or pineapple juice for a few minutes before placing out on the Trays.
Use an ascorbic acid mix which can be purchased in most health food stores or pharmacies. It may come in either powder or tablet form. Dissolve approximately 2-3 tablespoons into 1 quart (1 liter) of water. Soak the fruit slices into the solution for 2-3 minutes, then place on the Trays.

Fruits with a wax coating (figs, peaches, grapes, blueberries, prunes, etc.) should be dipped in boiling water to remove the wax. This allows moisture to escape easily when dehydrating.
Blanching can pre-treat food for dehydrating. Blanching does not destroy helpful enzymes and helps retain nutrients. There are two ways to blanch food:

WATER BLANCHING: Use a large pan; fill it half way with water. Bring water to a boil. Place food directly in a boiling water and cover. Remove after three minutes. Arrange food on the Trays.

STEAM BLANCHING: Using steamer pot bring 2-3” (5-7 cm) of water to a boil in bottom section. Place food in steamer basket and steam for 3-5 minutes. Remove steamed food and arrange on Trays.
CAUTION! It is important to follow the “Food Safety” guidelines outlined in this manual. For the most up to date instruction visit the USDA website.

MAKING JERKY

Use the best quality meats. Meats, fish and poultry should be lean and fresh. Remove as much fat as possible before dehydrating. Using lean meat will help the meat dry faster and aid in cleanup by decreasing the drippings. Ground meat should be 80% to 90% lean. Ground turkey, venison, buffalo and elk are other excellent choices for jerky.
Jerky seasonings are available for all tastes. Whenever making jerky, treat the mixture with cure (sodium nitrate). The cure is used to help prevent botulism during drying at low temperatures. Follow all of the manufacturer’s directions on the cure packet.

Keep raw meats and their juices away from other foods. Marinate meats in the refrigerator. Do not leave meats un-refrigerated. Prevent cross-contamination by storing dried jerky away from raw meat. Always wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after working with meat products. Use clean equipment and utensils.
Keep meat and poultry refrigerated at 40oF (5oC) or slightly below; use or freeze ground beef and poultry within 2 days; whole red meats, within 3 to 5 days. Defrost frozen meat bin the refrigerator, not on the counter.
Special considerations must be made when using venison or other wild game, as it can become heavily contaminated during field dressing. Venison is often held at temperatures that could potentially allow bacteria to grow, such as when it is being transported. Refer to the USDA Meat and Poultry Department for further questions or information on meat and food safety.

IMPORTANT: Before placing the meat in a Dehydrator, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to heat the meat to 160oF (71oC), poultry to 165oF (74oC), as measured with a food thermometer in an oven BEFORE starting the dehydration process. This step assures that any bacteria present will be destroyed by wet heat. After heating to 160oF (71oC), poultry to 165oF (74oC), maintain a constant dehydrator temperature of 145-155oF (63-68oC) during the drying process. Temperatures below 145oF (63oC) are NOT recommended.
If using a marinade, shake off excess liquid before placing the meat on the Trays.
Evenly space the meat in single layers approximately 1/4” (0.64 cm) apart on the Trays.

You may need to blot fat droplets from the surface of the meat occasionally using a paper towel.
Drying times may vary based on many circumstances including but not limited to: the relative humidity of the room, the temperature of the meat at the beginning of the drying process, the amount of meat in the Dehydrator, the leanness of the meat, etc.
Always allow jerky to cool before taste testing to avoid burns.

CAUTION! It is important to follow the “Food Safety” guidelines outlined in this manual. For the most up to date instruction visit the USDA website.

STORING JERKY

First wrap jerky in aluminum foil or wax paper, then store in a thick plastic food storage bag, metal, glass or plastic containers. Remove as much air as possible before sealing. Seal tightly.
Vacuum sealing is ideal for keeping dried foods.

Jerky should be stored in a cool, dark, dry place between 50-60oF (10-16oC) or lower. Jerky can be stored, if properly dried, at room temperature for 1 or 2 months. To extend shelf life to up to 6 months, store jerky in the freezer.
Be sure to label and date all packages with contents, ingredients, original weight and date processed.
Keep a journal to help improve drying techniques.

RE-HYDRATING FOODS

WARNING! DO NOT soak food at room temperature. Soaking at room temperature allows harmful bacteria to grow. Follow the “Food Safety” guidelines outlined in this manual.

Dehydrated food can be re-hydrated by soaking in cold water for 3-5 minutes or for 2-6 hours in the refrigerator in water. Use 1 cup of water for 1 cup of dehydrated food. Once re-hydrated, the food can be cooked normally. Soaking foods in warm water will speed up the process however; it may result in loss of flavor.
Do not add seasoning. Adding salt or sugar during re-hydration may change the flavor of the food.

To make stewed fruits or vegetables, add 2 cups of water and simmer until tender.
Consume dehydrated foods as soon as possible once the storage container is opened. Keep any unused portions in the refrigerator to avoid contamination.

DRYING FLOWERS & CRAFTS

Flowers should be dry to start with, best of picked after the dew has dried and before the night damp sets in. Dry the flowers as soon as possible after picking.

The best condition for drying flowers is a dry, warm, dark, clean and well ventilated area, which makes a dehydrator an ideal setting. Flowers will retain the best color and condition when dried quickly.
A low temperature should be used to retain the natural oils. Drying times will vary considerably depending on the size of the flower and the amount of foliage. Dry at 100oF (38oC).
Strip off the leaves or if you prefer to keep the foliage. Discard any brown or damaged leaves.

Place on the Tray in a single layer, avoiding overlapping.
Dough art and beads can be dried in the Dehydrator. Temperatures may vary.

FRUIT ROLL-UPS

Select ripe or slightly over-ripe fruits. Wash and remove blemishes, pits and skin.

Puree in a blender. Add yogurt, sweeteners or spices as desired. The puree should be thick in consistency.
Cover the Dehydrator Trays with plastic wrap.
Pour 1-1/2 to 2 cups of the puree onto the covered Trays. Carefully place the Trays in the Dehydrator.

The edges will dry quicker than the center, pour the puree thinner at the center of the Tray.
The average drying time for the fruit roll-ups is 4 to 6 hours.
Once the fruit roll-ups are shiny and non-sticky to the touch, remove them from the Dehydrator and allow them to cool.

Peel the fruit roll-up from the plastic wrap and roll into cylinders.

TIPS

Use the best quality foods. Fruits and vegetables in peak season have more nutrients and more flavor. Do not use food with bruises or blemishes. Bad fruits and vegetables may spoil the entire batch.
Use the best quality meats. Meats, fish and poultry should be lean and fresh. Remove as much fat as possible before dehydrating.

Do not overlap foods. Lay foods flat on the Trays.
Check dryness after a few hours, then check every two hours until dehydrated. Open or cut down the middle if a few samples to check internal dryness. If the food is still moist, dehydrate longer.
Use the Drying Guide on the Control Panel as reference for proper temperature settings. If the heat is set too high, the food may case harden, meaning the food is dried at too high of a temperature and the food was only dry on the outside, not the inside. If the temperature is too low, the drying time will increase.

Remember, foods will shrink approximately 1/4 to 1/2 their original size and weight during the dehydration process, so pieces should not be kept too small. One pound of raw meat will yield approximately 1/3 lb. (0.2 kg) of jerky.
Do not place items to be dried on the Drip Tray, there will be no circulation of air on this Tray. Clean the Drip Tray periodically during dehydration for easier clean-up.

FOOD SAFETY

There are basic rules to follow when handling food.
They are COOK, SEPARATE, CLEAN, and CHILL.

COOK
It’s crucial to cook food to a safe internal temperature to destroy bacteria that is present. The safety of hamburgers and other foods made with ground meat has been receiving a lot of attention lately, and with good reason. When meat is ground, the bacteria present on the surface is mixed throughout the ground mixture. If this ground meat is not cooked to at least 160oF to 165oF (71oC to 74oC), bacteria will not be destroyed and there’s a good chance you will get sick.
Solid pieces of meat like steaks and chops don’t have dangerous bacteria like E. coli on the inside, so they can be served more rare. Still, any beef cut should be cooked to an internal temperature of at least 145oF (63oC) (medium rare). The safe temperature for poultry is 180oF (82oC) and solid cuts of pork should be cooked to 160oF (71oC). Eggs should be thoroughly cooked too. If you are making a meringue or other recipe that uses uncooked eggs, buy specially pasteurized eggs or use prepared meringue powder.

SEPARATE
Foods that will be eaten uncooked and foods that will be cooked before eating MUST ALWAYS be separated. Cross-contamination occurs when raw meats or eggs come in contact with foods that will be eaten uncooked. This is a major source of food poisoning. Always double-wrap raw meats and place them on the lowest shelf in the refrigerator so there is no way juices can drip onto fresh produce. Then use the raw meats within 1-2 days of purchase, or freeze for longer storage. Defrost frozen meats in the refrigerator, not on the counter. When grilling or cooking raw meats or fish, make sure to place the cooked meat on a clean platter. Don’t use the same platter you used to carry the food out to the grill. Wash the utensils used in grilling after the food is turned for the last time on the grill, as well as spatulas and spoons used for stir-frying or turning meat as it cooks. Make sure to wash your hands after handling raw meats or raw eggs. Washing hands with soap and water, or using a pre-moistened antibacterial towelette is absolutely necessary after you have touched raw meat or raw eggs. Not washing hands and surfaces while cooking is a major cause of cross-contamination.

CLEAN
Wash your hands and work surfaces frequently when you are cooking. Washing with soap and warm water for at least 15 seconds, then dry with a paper towel.

CHILL
Chilling food is very important. The danger zone where bacteria multiply is between 40oF and 140oF (4oC and 6oC). Your refrigerator should be set to 40oF (4oC) or below; your freezer should be 0oF (-17oC) or below. Simple rule: serve hot foods hot, cold foods cold. Use chafing dishes or hot plates to keep food hot while serving. Use ice water baths to keep cold foods cold. Never let any food sit at room temperature for more than 2 hours – 1 hour if the ambient temperature is 90oF (32oC) or above. When packing for a picnic, make sure the foods are already chilled when they go into the insulated hamper. The hamper won’t chill food – it just keeps food cold when properly packed with ice. Hot cooked foods should be placed in shallow containers and immediately refrigerated so they cool rapidly. Make sure to cover foods after they are cool.
NOTE: Special considerations must be made when using venison or other wild game, since it can become heavily contaminated during field dressing. Venison is often held at temperatures that could potentially allow bacteria to grow, such as when it is being transported. Refer to the USDA Meat and Poultry Department for further questions or information on meat and food safety.
