RE: Dehydrating Herbs, Forbs, and Flowers
We do a lot of dehydrating here, but never seen the jar attachments. Interesting. Is that to dehydrate completely, or is it the vacume sealer machine, or used to finish off and keep moisture out as sealing? Think you are a bit more scientific than I. Which probably means less spoilage in the end. Though it's not usually a huge problem.
Thanks for a look at your process, and dry away...
The vacuum sealer is solely used to keep the material from re-absorbing the moisture from the air. It does nothing else. (well, it will also seal vacuum bags, but....)
Here in New England it is often so humid during the summer, that if I do not get the stuff into jars and sealed it starts to go limp within minutes.
