So Easy to Preserve also notes that when trying to dry herbs in conditions of high humidity, it is better to remove the leaves and dry them separately, rather than trying to dry whole intact stems of herbs. As well, a higher dehydrator temperature may be helpful: “Pre-heat dehydrator wit...
Sun-drying method is commonly employed in tropical and subtropical regions with ambient temperature of 30 °C, and is most popular in the Southeast Asia for medicinal herbs and spices preservation (Chua & Chou, 2003). However, sun drying in tropical climates can be challenging due to occasion...
Meanwhile, the supply of dry air from the heat pump system with a magnitude of 0.25-0.50 m/s helps in enhancing the drying rate of the herbs as well as minimizing the non-uniformity of drying temperature and relative humidity inside the solar greenhouse dryer....
Inside the steel drying chamber 1 (Chamber 1), average temperatures ranged from 50°C to 82°C, ideal for drying herbs. Chamber 2, constructed from polycarbonate, exhibited a more relaxed range of 42°C to 65°C, further demonstrating the material's insulating properties. Notably, despite ...
Avoid the HerbsNow if your air is dry. My humidity was around 50%, which worked well, but some growers have said they get poor results using the dryer in low humidity. You can put a shot glass of water in the bottom of the dryer to add more humidity, but for growers with low humi...
This technology is particularly suitable for high-value products, as it allows for controlled transient drying conditions in terms of temperature, humidity, and air velocity, thereby improving product quality attributes and reducing drying costs. HPD has proven to be a reliable method for biomaterials...
This helps buds dry evenly in high humidity, helping prevent problems with mold (here’s how one grower dried in high humidity). With high levels of humidity, it can help to remove most of the leaves before drying.Another option if the air is overly humid is to dry on a mesh rack, ...
