    Renee you need a premeasured scoop so there's no guessing when packing your bags. Would save you a TON of time. Freeze dried skittles are SOO addicting!!!

    Something that works really well is the cereal storage containers. The medium trays fit inside and allows you to pour food from the tray into the container and then you have the pour spout for moving foods into bags, jars etc. Enjoying your teamwork freeze drying videos. Looking forward to seeing more of them. May God bless you and yours. Please take care. Bye for now.

    I have a large freeze dryer and im wondering if you have the candy mode with yours? It makes freeze drying candy super easy! Its skips the freezing mode and goes directly to the drying mode! Saves a lot of time! Skittles cn be done in 4-5 hours. Anything gummy takes up to 12 hours

That’s what concerned me, now that I know you can run on the regular mode, I want to try it 😊. Thank you! I would love to see more freeze drying videos.

    I want to get the XL I have the large right now. I LOVE how you and John used the cement blocks to hold that beast!! And there is NO big surprise your basement is as clean as up stairs!!! I am glad your lil farm stand works well for the 2 of you. I just got my new board in for my fd yesterday so HOPEFULLY I can get these 4 trays out of my freezer plus do up more of what is needed. I want to try to do some meat for jar meals that is not just burger. But you know how you feel you got a 4-5 k paper weight when your FD is not working! Glad you got yours back! Not sure how you got that up and down the stairs Great job!!!!

    Maybe someone already said this but why didn’t you choose candy mode? I do skittles for 2 hrs at 145 candy mode, and bears around 12 hrs 150 candy mode. I do gummy stuff by themselves, try the target brand peach rings candy mode 150 12-14 hrs do not preheat your trays, they’ll sell like crazy😂 ( oh , stretch them when putting them on the trays)
