"Hey", everyone. Based on responses a couple weeks ago, I've been playing with my dehydrator. I've only done apples, carrots and some Jerky, but it's a start. Info I have says to keep the dehydrated food in a dry, cool place. Many sources suggest storing it in the refrigerator. No source of info even remotely mentioned the freezer for even longer storage. So..... is it good, bad or indifferent to store dehydrated food in the freezer? I have very limited frig space available, but I have a huge freezer in the garage that is only half full. Also, I've read that some items take as much as 60 hours to dehydrate. I think that was apricots, if I recall correctly. Anyway, I know virtually nothing about electricity, and the differences between, Watts, Volts, Amps and so forth. So, the question is, 60 hours is a long time..... how much does it actually cost to operate a dehydrator? Surely, it's pennies, or it wouldn't be cost effective, right?
