The Large Pro Freeze Dryer has 1,107 square inches of tray space. It freeze dries 18 to 27 pounds of fresh food per batch. With consistent use, it can process up to 5,000 pounds a year. This starter kit includes the freeze dryer, a vacuum pump, and supplies for storing the finished food.
Freeze drying keeps the food's original texture, taste, color and nutrition, without shrinking or toughening it. People use it to preserve garden harvests, build emergency food supplies, make meals for hiking, camping and hunting trips, and prepare preservative-free meals and treats for people and pets.
It runs on a standard 110V (NEMA 5-15) outlet and needs a dedicated 15-amp circuit. The pump oil should be changed every 20 to 30 batches, which takes a few minutes. Clean the unit as needed.
