SELECTING FOOD & LOADING TRAY FOR DRYING
Select high quality produce that is ripe and full of flavour for the best results. Wash all
fruits and vegetables to remove any debris, dust or insects. Cut away any bruised or
damaged sections. Lay food pieces evenly onto the trays. Do not overlap the food
pieces as this may inhibit drying. As each tray is loaded, stack them one by one onto the
Power Base Unit ready for drying.
TIP:
To get the best result be sure to slice your food between 5mm and 10mm in
thickness. Any thicker than this and the food may not dry evenly.
DRYING TIME:
Drying times will vary, depending on the type and amount of food, the
thickness of the slices, the percentage of water in the food and the weather when using
the Dehydrator. See pages 23 through to 28 for approx. drying times.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL:
The Luvele Breeze Dehydrator has a temperature range of
between 25 degrees C & 75 degrees C.
TEMP RANGE 25 TO 30 DEGREES C:
This temperature setting range is for making
biltong and drying flower etc.. over a 2-3 day period. The maximum drying time on the
25 and 30 degrees C setting is 72 hours.
TEMP RANGE 35 TO 45 DEGREES C:
This temperature setting range is ideal for drying
foods that need to remain raw. This lower temperature will dehydrate foods slower, so it
may be necessary to slice food thinner when using these temperatures.
IMPORTANT:
The maximum drying time on the 35 to 45 degrees C settings is 24 hours.
TEMP RANGE 50 TO 75 DEGREES C
: This temperature range is for produce with a
high water content like meats, fruits and vegetables etc. It is recommended to dehydrate
all meats on the 75 degrees C temperature setting.
IMPORTANT:
The maximum drying time on the 50 to 75 degrees C settings is 24 hours.
