Presto 06300 Dehydro Electric Food Dehydrator
It’s every homesteaders dream to produce or make their food. That’s why we learn what we can about raising animals and growing plants. Then there’s food preservation. One such type of preserving food is by drying them. Meat jerky, dried fruits and dried vegetables are just a few of the things you can do using this process. While the traditional methods of drying food is something every homesteader should learn, it’s also nice to have a food dehydrator.
If you don’t have a food dehydrator yet, then this is the time to get one for your wife.

The dehydrator comes with a pre-set temperature of 165 degrees. A fan mounted at the bottom makes sure the heat is equally and consistently distributed so every piece is dehydrated properly. The transparent lid on the top tray allows you to see what’s going on inside. The cover and drying trays are both dishwasher safe so cleaning should be a breeze.
