Occasionally reposition the
SUN OVEN
®
to track the sun as it moves across the sky. The ideal
temperature for drying is between 110 and 150 degrees F. If the temperature goes over 150, it is best
to open the glass door for 2 to 5 minutes to allow the temperature to drop and adjust focus so the oven
is not directly facing the sun. It is better for the oven temperature to be a bit on the low side. Too high
a temperature could cook the food.
Many foods will dry in one day of sunshine. Wet foods such as tomatoes or pears or some meat jerky
will require a second day. If the drying process is not complete at the end of the day leave the items to
be dried in the
SUN OVEN
®
and latch the latches over the glass. This will create an air tight seal
suspending the drying overnight and preventing bugs from entering the oven chamber. The drying
process can continue the next day.
How it works
Solar radiation passes through the clear glass door of the
SUN OVEN
®
allowing enough heat to be
trapped inside of the
SUN OVEN
®
to dry the food.
As your food dries, moisture rises with the hot air and escapes through the gap between the glass door
and the black gasket.
