Interesting. I don’t do freeze drying, but had recently had freeze-dried Werthers, which were DIVINE. This popped into my recommended videos, and I was interested to see the process.
The werthers caramels are SO good!!! Thanks for watching - sure is fun to make!
I got a freeze dryer for Christmas. So far we’ve done skittles, marshmallows and apples. I have a bag of starbursts but wasn’t sure how to do them. They are going in tomorrow now that I know! Thanks! And Alaska is beautiful
They don't work, u need to pre heatbthem for an hour at least otherwise they just become a tooth breaking lil brick the goal is to getbthem.puffy and airy like the jolly ranchers, I suggest tray warming both candies for an hour
I’m excited you got your freeze dryer! Merry Christmas!
@@TheRealBatCave thanks for the tip! Doing 10 minutes of warming instead of 5 was a minor improvement!
@blackblog np, frankly with Starburst the longer u pre heat the better, trybthe max 20 min
I recently saw a fellow (he has a channel on freeze drying as well) ….. and has a recipe for “Carmel Apples”🍎 …… Apparently, this is a HUGE hit with Customers!
I cannot wait to get a freeze dryer.
You might want to try those, if you like Carmel Apples. Of all the Recipes, I’ve seen (and Ive read Every one I could find) it appears, Honey Crisp Apples have the BEST taste, and using a bottle to drizzle the Carmel, works Best.
❤Have Fun!
The backyard is going to be awesome!
Totally 💯
How do you decide how much to sell them for?
Bag size or type of candy?
Sounds yummy!!
They were quite tasty!!
Starbursts look yummy. Have you ever done the minis plus they are not wrapped. Fun Alaska adventures!
I want to try those! I haven’t yet
They don't work, trust me
Eklutna is so pretty ❤
It is was so much fun
I’m think I might have told you about skipping you press the harvest right icon also I noticed you have -10 on your freeze time no need to freeze for starburst but some people swear by it for gummy style
Ok awesome thank you yes it was you!!
Did you try to warm the trays the first time you put them in and they weren't successful? I'm confused on why to use the oven if warming the trays would do the same thing from what I'm learning. However, I haven't done starburst so I don't know. Just learning. Thanks for sharing in advance.
No problem! I’ve tried both ways - the oven warming gets it more melty than the regular tray warm in the freeze dryer. When they get more melty they puff up more in the freeze dryer. Some candies don’t need any warming, but any that you’re finding aren’t turning out or expanding well - a lot of times oven warming can help.
Just as good left in wrapper with no pre warming
Oh I’ll have to try that next time! Would save tons of time not unwrapping everything 👏 thanks for sharing!
So, don't even remove Starburst from the wrapper? Do they pop out on their own then?
When you do Candy or really anything. How do you know how much extra dry time should you add. Basically I’m worried about something finishing when I’m asleep or not home. What do I do? Thank you!
It's totally ok for candy or any food to keep drying longer than needed... if I'm going to be gone or think something will be done overnight, I add a bunch of dry hours so the dryer will just keep my food/candy where its at until I can get to it. Most candy I do in 4 hours, but some gummies take up to 12... so kind of just have to experiment.
@@DIYfreezedry so can you change the drying time after it’s already started. For example I’m doing my 1st run (bread run) and my drying time says 2:44 at the moment and the orange bar is almost finished. How do I add more time so I can go back to sleep?
Also have you yried red hots. Ive tried heating them in oven first and I cant get them to work
I haven’t tried red hots yet! Hmmm I’ll have to experiment with those - would be yummy if they worked
Where did you get the bags you package your candy in? What is the name brand of the bags?
amzn.to/3TCiyc9
These are the bags I’ve been liking lately! Lots of colors and sizes. I buy the 4.7in x 7.8in
Where did you purchase your machine? And also is the freeze machine the same as a food dehydrating machine?
affiliates.harvestright.com/2097.html
I purchased from Harvest Right! You can buy online through the link, some businesses carry them in stock like Sportmans Warehouse. This is different than dehydrating - you have to have the freeze dryer which uses a vacuum pump to be able to do the candy.
I love to FD nerd gummy clusters into what I call "NERDIES" since the company doesn't like anyone calling them nerds. 😂 I think they look like a little Goosebumps or light bulbs or covid cells or pufferfish😊
Those are soooo good!! Haha love the nicknames, especially the puffer fish!!!
If you have a newer machine and it's already updated, Harvest Right freeze dryers already know that it's "candy mode" when you have programmed a higher dry temperature and it'll say it right on the customized screen. If it doesn't automatically detect that and then you selecta more ambience room temperature for the freeze temp.
How long will the candy last in those bags until they are sold?
They are good for about 3-4 months I would say! I tried a bag that I knew was older than that maybe 6 months (was an old one I never sold) and it tasted old like a bit soggy, not much crunch anymore.
Would using warm tray for 7 mins eliminate the need for the oven?
I am going to experiment with that - the more melty the starburst get the better they will expand and the oven I think gets them more melty than just the freeze dryer warming. If warming trays and not doing oven, I would even set it for like 20 minutes and see how that turns out
I've been experimenting with my own "candy mode". Since the candy isn't technically freeze dried, I started manually turning the heater on, loading the trays and let them warm for about 15-20 minutes. After they are warm, I manually turn on the vacuum pump and let it run until the candy seems done (an hour-ish). Seems to work well and it saves electricity because the machine isn't cooling.
When I go into the Customize screen, There is no candy mode. It sounds like you have figured out how to do it manually. I will fiddle with it and see if I can make it work.
@@louisethomas8385You have to download and install the updated software in order to get Candy Mode. However, some people were having issues with the updated version and since I'm a it's not broke don't fix it kinda gal I've left ours alone. If you want to take the risk it is an option.
Where did u get your white containers to hold the bagged candy in your shelves? Can u link them please? Thank u!💗
I got them at target but they don’t sell these ones anymore 🥲 I’m bummed bc they were super cheap and work great!!
Hello, I found your channel. I am from Colombia and I bought a freeze-drying machine with my savings to start my business. since my country is super difficult to find work. Thanks for your help and advice. By any chance you don't have a manual where you can share to guide me on this path. thank you so much and you are the best
I don't have any type of manual, but I do have playlists on my channel with lots of videos of things I have freeze dried! Hopefully they are helpful for you! I am excited for your business to get going, I wish you good luck!
How long did you heat the starburst and what temperature
I heated them at 250 degrees in the oven for about 7 minutes - I wanted to make sure I pulled them out before they fully melted
I was told that you could not put the freeze dried trays in the oven. It is hard on the pump
Ah - I don’t do it often but have for starbursts 🫣
Do the starburst go back to chewy after you are eating on it
They more just kind of melt away! They don’t become chewy again
We do it to it needs to get a little goopy
Just found your channel as I am getting into freeze drying as well. I grew up in Wasilla, but now down here in the oven we call Texas. So looking forward to winter as this summer as been tough. I do have a question as I have only done research for Texas's Cottage food laws, does Alaska require labels on your products like they do here in Texas?
Oh awesome you grew up here! We are in Wasilla a lot for our kids gymnastics. I feel you on the Texas heat, my sister lives there and tells us it’s been crazy hot 🥵
Yes - we have the same laws about needing a label stating it is prepared in a home kitchen and some other information - I don’t remember exactly what it says but you’re supposed to have it on there.
Awesome, I figured that, my freeze dryer arrives Friday, looking forward to getting started.
two things I miss about Alaska are the mountain views and the fishing. Thanks for your reply and the videos you upload.@@DIYfreezedry
@@atwellchris nice that’s exciting it’s coming this week!! Have fun with it! I agree the mountains here are breathtaking just driving around I’m always in awe at how pretty it is here
Does warming them in the oven do the same as the tray warming feature on the harvest right?
I haven’t tested but it might work if you did longer tray warming maybe 10min or so? Would be a good experiment!
Thank you ever so much for replying. I can't imagine how busy you always are! I'm struggling with freeze drying gummy candy. Do you have any suggestions / tricks/ tips? I just can't seem to get it!
One thing I’ve learned is some gummy candies just don’t work great :/ it’s kind of trial and error. If you aren’t using parchment paper as a tray liner, I would do that too! I do have a playlist on my channel of all the candy videos
I’ve done, there may be some that you haven’t tried that work good!
Do you have the small or medium sized machine??
Mine is medium 😃
How do you keep candy from poofing and getting stuck to the top?
The candies that I know puff up I always cut in half before freeze drying like Jolly Ranchers and things with caramel in them - sometimes they still hit the top and make a mess 😆
Every time I do starburst they end up getting hard ?? How do I fix this
Mine are still pretty hard too - but with this pre warming method they aren’t as hard as before when I just put them right into the freeze dryer. I like them more if a melt in your mouth candy not chewing haha
How long did tou dry for
I miss alaska summer now
Hello from Soldotna
How long did they take?
I did not get the trivia right my guess was the 60s 😮
Yeah I had no idea until I looked it up!
Actually, Freeze Drying has been around since pre-historic times. Butif you want to get technical then you would need to credit the Mayan's for freeze drying.. They actually used a natural form of freeze drying a type of potato by taking the potato's up the moantians during the winter months
I actually just learned that a few months ago my daughter is studying Mayans in 4th grade and she had a whole presentation she showed me that talked about how they freeze dried food 😱 so cool!!
@@DIYfreezedry Actually, YES, YES IT IS COOL!!!! Its cool she is learning this in the 4th grade!!! I believe Alaska has the best schooling of all the states!!! I just give people that count on "google" for therir answers a hard time, nothing personal and thank you for not taking it the wrong way. I've always wanted a FD ever since HarvestRight came out with there very first one.all those years ago. I finally got one, not HarvestRight, but Im having fun with it.Actually just ran my first "test batch" of gummies. For a guy thats T2 Diabetic, the instant sugar is dangerous!!! But lordy lordy, the intense flavor that the machine coaxes out of them is amazing!!!!!!!! Well this weekend, actually tonight, I will be throwing in my 20lbs (or whatever is left after prepping meals) of Brocolli cuts will be headed into the machine then mashed taters and stuffing.Soon as I get a bit more comfy with it, I'll be throwing in Salmon, Tuna, Lobster Tails and Swordfish Steaks
My Costco has no skittles by themselves, only in mixes.
We have a Costco business center opening in February I’m hoping they have the bulk skittles 🙏
What works in 1 hr like skittles? Where is a chart lol
I know!! Sprees turn out similar to skittles and go fast….. that’s all I can think of
You have not removed the blue film from your heat press
Haha I don’t know now I need to go check
How much does that freezer cost I’m trying to make them and sale them on TikTok
A small is roughly 2,400.
My medium 5 tray harvest right was 2,888 after taxes

This link will take you to the website and you can see the costs of the different machines they offer 👍🏻
Is it a thing to keep them in to long to mess them up ?
I am wondering, When did everyone unlearn that all the Red, Yellow, Orange and other bad colors in food and drink is bad!!! Just asking....
1968. I'm guessing it was invented for the space program.
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had no clue it was invented over 100 years ago,.
Me either!!! So crazy!! I’m sure it wasn’t as fancy as what we have now, but who knew they could do that so long ago. Crazy!!
This got a lot of views
Can I have some I just subscribed
Thanks for subscribing!!! Wish I could share with everyone 🙃
1950 for the astronauts?
Close!!!!
I am a professional video editor. The key to keep peoples’ attention is to deliver the point as efficiently as possible.
Her endless distractions are annoying, regardless of what the UA-cam algorithms suggest.
I love the advice but I have to fast forward through all the chatter. My time its important. ‘Just the facts please madam’ (Dragnet Friday)
Please less talk more action and keep to the topic not back yard tips free take it
The reason they procrastinate and draw the video out is to reach over a 10 minute video because they’re able to make more money and place more ads. I agree keep on topic and get to the point. But keep people coming back, but this video rambling would likely make people avoid her videos
She wants people to get to know her and about her family. What’s wrong with that?
Shut up
