This freeze dryer works best for drying herbs, leafy greens, yogurt drops, and other foods that don’t have a lot of moisture.
It’s great for homesteaders who want to save food that’s bulky or delicate, but you should be careful with wet foods—they can make too much ice for the machine to handle. It has a smart freeze-drying system that makes it easy to use, whether you’re new to it or have done it before. The machine is built strong with stainless steel parts and has smart tools like temperature sensors and a motor that keeps the oil clean. It also includes a candy mode for drying sweet treats and a drain line that makes cleanup simple.
