Other Uses
While there are countless uses for a good dehydrator, I find one of the best is its ability to dry fresh herbs and spices. I grow many herbs myself and used to hang them out to dry. Now, I can put them in the dehydrator for a couple of hours and they're ready to use! The usual drying temperature for most herbs and spices is under 100 degrees Farenheit.
