How long does it take to dehydrate foods in the Excalibur dehyrator?
Dehyration times varies, and depends on several factors. Please see the dehydration times page for guidlines. What is the space between the trays on the Excalibur? About 3/4″ between trays. The trays above the tray you are using the dehydrate may be removed for extra space (if you want to put a dish or dehyrate a thick bread dough). Do all the trays need to be filled in order to use the Excalibur Dehydrator or can you use just a few of the trays? You can run the machine mostly empty, half empty or full. You can fill the trays partially full, or all the way full. It does not need to be filled in order to run. I reccomend purchasing the largest size dehydrator you would ever need, since you can run it partially full, but you can not add space if you get one too small. How much does it cost to run the dehydrator? Your actual cost will depend on your local utility company, and how much they charge per kW/hour. The dehydrators use 600, 440 and 220 watts for the 9,5, and 4 tray models. With
