I am new in freeze drying and a big Thank you for the information. From the video saw powdered food in a jar. What happens when you are opening to use, does it absorb moisture and rehydrate plus how long should powdered food stay for?
Thank for creating this very informative video. This is my first freeze dry video and I gave me the basics and an overview. Great success to you and everyone looking into freeze drying foods and fun.
For a person who is just putting up food from this year’s garden for throughout the coming year, are glass jars with no oxygen absorbers sufficient? For meats too?
What size do you have? Small? Medium? Large?
Good info.
Anybody else freeze dry without special equipment,
Other than a large metal baking sheet and cranking the cool on your freezer to max, just spreading out everything thin?
Were wey Buy the Frezzer drying and what's is the cost.
Freeze dryers are way way more expensive than dehydrators.
Momma here due soon and looking into freeze drying breastmilk anyone know how I’d go about this? If needed I will just pay a company to do so for me but I was looking to pick up a new hobby too as I’ll be a stay at home mom anyway.
Great information! Where did you get your glass containers for storage?
I live in a small one bedroom apartment and I’m considering getting the small size and upgrading to the oil less pump. Do you think it would be too loud? Is it a disturbing sound or would you say more of a background noise. Is it the pump that is creating the sound or the dryer itself?
My next prepper purchase is a quality freeze dryer. Thanks for the video!
I am having some buyers remorse. We got our four days ago, and had no idea that it takes from about 8 hours to over 50 hours to process. It makes the house hot.
Can you freeze dry raisins, dates, and prunes?
Is there a list of foods that absolutely cannot be freeze dried. If so where can I get it. Thanks so much. I'm getting ready to order mine, I have to get my cart too. I just want to be as ready as I can. By, can you provide link for the cart you put yours on. Thanks again
I'd love to know what kind of jars you use for storage and where you purchased them from.
Kitchen problems solved…thanks
What size do you have
Where can I buy a machine from please
Got anymore of them freeze dry ideas?
Ok now i just need to find someone near me who has one & trade them herbs (i have lots) to dry them for me. Lol
What size cart did you get to put your machine on ? And where did you buy it ?
I read on the HR site that the FD needs it's own dedicated 20 amp circuit. Are you not able to use your washer and dryer while running your FD?

Hello from Taiwan. Thank you for sharing!!
Praise the LORD for creating freeze dryers!
If you FD rosella can it be rehydrated for jam?
What machine do you use?
Would it be ok to use and store the dryer in our garage that can get down to 40 degree F?
Hello, Is "vacuum freeze drying" and "freeze drying" the same concept?
Glad you are enjoying the freeze dryer! There is truly a huge difference between the quality of dehydrated and freeze-dried foods. I don't have the budget or the space, unfortunately. But I have been happy with the bulk foods I have purchased. I am using more freeze dried foods versus GMO produce that has very low nutrition. And am converting all my camping meals to home-packed freeze dried versus the expensive $10 to $15 store-bought junk! Thanks The Great Out There
Too expensive to buy. Can anyone sponsor with 25% annual ROI
