Dehydrating
Submitted by jaime on Wed, 15/02/2012 - 22:21


Jan bought us a cheap dehydrator from the internet. So far we've dried Lemon Verbena, Mint, Basil, Curry Plant leaves and two trays of grape leather! I think i did it wrong as it's crunchy. But it tastes fine.
Jan connected a power meter up to the dehydrator to see how much electricity it was using. We used about 60c to dry the grape leather. That plus the 2 hours labour picking and then mashing!

and this is why you are going to build a big outdoor solar dehydrator and throw everything in there.
Costs
60c is still pretty cheap, (hours not so much). Can't buy much for 60c.
