Instructions

<p>The Excalibur 3948CDB Electric Digital Food Dehydrator is ideal for dehydrating a wide range of foods such as fruits, vegetables, jerky, homemade yogurt and so much more. The 48 hour Digital Controller features 2 time, 2 temperature controls to simplify the drying process. Temperature can be set from 95 degrees F to 165 degrees F. After loading food onto the trays, set the dehydrator at a higher temperature for a specified period of time for the initial dehydration process; and then set the dehydrator at a lower temperature for a specified period of time for longer cooking. The unit automatically adjusts after the 1st setting and turns off when the 2nd setting is complete. The 3948CDB is the perfect way to make wholesome snacks for you family. Parallexx Horizontal Airflow distributes air evenly over each tray allowing food to dry faster, retain more nutrients and taste better. Hyperwave Technology ensures food temperature stays low enough to maintain enzymes and nutrients in foods being dehydrated by controlling evaporative moisture. The clear doors let you easily see your drying progress and the 9 trays that measure 15 x 15 in each, let you enjoy a full 15 square feet of dehydrating space. Limited 10-year Warranty. Overall Dimensions :Width: 17 in Depth: 19 in Height: 14 in. Includes a Guide to Dehydration.</p>

Since receiving my Excalibur I have had something going almost non stop. Here are my bullet points so far:
  -- This dehydrator holds a phenomenal amount a product. I was amazed the first time I used it!
  -- The drying is very consistent. I have heard that you need to rotate items when drying. While it might not hurt to rotate, if you forget don't worry.
  -- The book that came with the unit is very clear and takes some of the worry out of the process if you have never done this before (which I hadn't)
  -- I love the clear door.

Some things to consider (by buyers and/or manufacturer):
  -- Cost. It is the highest priced unit on the market and I was actually surprised that the unit is almost entirely plastic (and super light for the size). Just seems kind of cheap (when it is not).
  -- The top shelf has significantly less space that every other shelf, so if you are rotating you can't put stuff on the top shelf. Increasing the overall height by 1/2 inch would solve this.
  -- If you are buying I would suggest that you get the tray liners. On our first products we placed items directly on the screens and they were a pain to clean. We are now using parchment paper and it is a pain to keep cutting to fit.

I wanted a quiet dehydrator that would be a regularly used appliance in my kitchen. It needed to fit a large quantity to make dehydrated food a part of our regular diet. My perfect dehydrator needed to have specific temperature and time controls as well.

This dehydrator meets every requirement and then some. I love that you can take the door off to check on the food without stopping it or re-setting the timer. The nine trays fit a huge amount of food! I can fit four thinly sliced tomatoes on each tray to make tomato chips. Then fill eight more trays!

It is very quiet -- almost the exact same volume and pitch as my microwave. It's not a distraction nor a nuisance, and the entire family is now used to it running in the background as part of our normal routine. It sits right in the middle of the kitchen and is running daily with a new batch of healthy snacks.

I have used other dehydrators in the past, but they never really dried the food well. This dehydrator is perfect for making chips out of vegetables that have real crunch to them. There is no case hardening and the products come out uniformly dried without rotating the trays.

Well done Excalibur!

Meets all my demands

I already owned a 5 tray system and liked it very much. During fig harvest it was drying almost round the clock. I bought the 9 tray because my harvests were up to 600 pounds a week and I needed to be able to dry a larger quantity. (I am a commercial grower.) I love the bigger fan and how much more even and faster the figs dry in this larger machine. The clear window on the door makes it easy to check the progress without opening and letting the heat escape. I don't have to rotate the trays and I am finding that I am knocking about 3 hours off my old drying time. The control panel is easy to set and I like the count-down clock and auto stop. No more over dried figs. I dried some fresh tomato chips along with mango and pineapple in the new machine and it was delicious! I am most pleased and impressed with Excaliber products. I chose Excaliber over other companies because of the 10 year warranty vs. the others that might offer a year or two. They believe in their product and the quality is very apparent.

Bigger Fan!!

I purchased this model to replace an aging 9 tray dehydrator that was close to 20 years old. I can tell you without a doubt that I know I dehydrated a ton of meat for jerky with out any problems. I used the old model so much that the bottom of the unit where it sat on the 4 legs completely vibrated through.
Finally the whole bottom side cracked but not from any factory problem. I have used the new one 3 times so far and the jerky that came off of it was perfect. Thank you Excalibur for making a fabulous product. Do not hesitate to purchase an Excalibur you will not be disappointed.

Love my 2nd Excalibur dehydrator

This has saved me so much money on Jerky! We eat a lot of Jerky lol I can make about 6 pounds with this machine, and I know what ingredients are going into the Jerky! It's so delicious and takes about 4-6 hours, depending on the thickness of the Jerky cut.

Saves you $ Cha-ching

I purchased this product to dehydrate some backpacking meals and discovered so much more. I'm new to dehydrating and love it. Rarely a day goes by that I'm not experimenting with something. Nothing will ever go to waste in our home ever again. I love the temperature and timer features.. so happy I bought this top of the line product.

I bought this a month ago, and have dried apple slices in it and peach leather.  It is light weight yet durable.  I love being able to set the timer and it turns off when time finished.  I do not have to rotate the trays, all things dry evenly.  I prepare the fruit in my house, and then take my dryer outside or in the garage when it is drying.  It is easy to carry.  I love it!

Excellent dehydrator!

I have been on a dehydrating binge ever since receiving my Excalibur! I absolutely LOVE it!

Fantastic dehydrator!

Its a fabulous unit!  Works exemplary.  Wish my first unit would've been an Excalibur one.  It's the absolute best for your dollar and food.

Excalibur Dehydrator

I like the many shelves and even drying, the time and temperature features are great. 
My reserve:  I feel it was too expensive for the quality.  The fragile plastic canvas holders and use of plasic canvas with no edge to prevent the cut edges from catching on anything. plus, no slight ridge to prevent food from rolling right off was hard to accept for an over $350 item.  Because it does the job, and the good warrenty, I am keeping it.  Thank you for asking my opinion.

working well

I purchased this unit and the first one that arrived was damaged in shipping. Fine, it happens. Received replacement unit and didn't have time for about 6 weeks to use it. First time I plug it in the fan DOESN'T WORK. I'm wondering why all this food isn't drying and start checking about 20 hours into drying. At first I'm thinking I didn't use it right, maybe using so many racks slows down the drying? Maybe it takes longer than it says? Nope, it's that the product is defective from the get go.  I'm learning that the refund window from where I purchased it is expired and so I have a $300+ easy bake oven that's probably a fire hazard. Unfortunately can't recommend this product as I've never gotten to successfully use it.
