Great for making homemade jerky and dehydrating nutritious fruits and vegetables. Even makes healthy pet treats. The Dehydro™ food dehydrator’s top-mounted fan and heating element provide consistent air flow for optimum drying with no tray rotation necessary and no mixed flavors. Four drying trays are included, and it expands up to eight trays for added drying capacity (additional trays sold separately). Drying trays nest when not in use for a 22% reduction in storage space. Preset temperature is ideal for drying jerky made from beef, venison, and other meats. Dry heathy fruits and vegetables with no additives or preservatives at a fraction of the cost of commercially dried foods. Dehydration maintains natural vitamins and minerals. Drying trays nest, cord wraps around cover, and cover handle folds down when not in use for easy, space-saving storage. The drying trays and base drip tray are fully immersible for easy cleaning. Accessories, including fruit roll sheets, mesh screens, and jerky gun, are sold separately at GoPresto.com.
