Excalibur is known as a leader in the home food dehydrator industry. The reason is because they invented the Parallexx Drying System that revolutionized the industry and allowed for a much higher capacity of food dehydration while still staying as compact as possible.
The first thing you will notice with any model of Excalibur dehydrators is that they don't look like a traditional home food dehydrator. Instead of the usual round trays that stack on top of each other, they have square trays that slide in and out of a box dehydrator. It basically looks like a small oven with several trays full of dehydrated goodness.
The other unusual thing about the Excalibur dehydrator that you won't find with others is that it sends out the waves that dehydrate the food from the back of the unit, instead of the bottom like other dehydration units. This is why the Excalibur dehydration system can fit so much food into such a compact space, and why it patented the Parallexx Drying System. It allows for parallel or horizontal flow, which evenly dries all the food and allowed for maximum capacity. You will also be able to do several different fruits at one time without having to worry about the taste of each one interfering with the taste of any of the others.
There are several different Excalibur dehydration units, all with different capacities. The large family-sixed unit has nine trays that can fit dozens of slices of your favorite meat or fruits and dry them out in record time. There is also a mid-sized family Excalibur dehydrator that allows for you to dry five trays of food at a time. If this is still a bit much, the most compact models have only four thin trays to dehydrate food on.
There are non-stick drying sheets that must be used with some Excalibur dehydrator models. These sheets are very inexpensive if you need extras, and can generally be ordered at the same time as you place your order for your Excalibur dehydrator. These sheets are thin and don't take up much room on the tray at all, allowing more room for the food.
No matter which size model of the Excalibur dehydrator you choose, you will be amazed and pleased with how well it dehydrates your food while saving so much room on your counter. From nine trays down to four, there is a model for all needs and uses from family to single homes. |
