The Excalibur Model 3948CDB, 48-hour Digital Controller Dehydrator, comes with 9 Trays and a clear door so you can view progress without interrupting the drying process. The 48 Hour, 2 Time / 2 Temperature Digital Controller lets you set the dehydrator and forget it. To speed up the drying process, set the dehydrator at a higher temperature for a specified period of time; and then set the dehydrator at a lower temperature for a specified period of time. The unit will automatically adjust after the 1st setting and turns off when the 2nd setting is complete. The Model 3948CDB comes complete with 15 square feet of drying space, 7” fan, adjustable thermostat 95˚F – 165˚F, Hyperwave™ Patented Technology, and Parallexx Horizontal Air Flow.

The Excalibur Dehydrator removes water from food by a continuous circulation of thermostatically-controlled warm air. A variety of foods, from bright golden kernels of farm-fresh corn to rings of island-sweetened pineapple can be dehydrated. Slices of beef, chicken, fish or even venison can be easily dried into homemade jerky. A fruit puree dries into a vividly colored, taffy-like snack or fruit roll. Make soup mixes, herb and spice mixes, yogurt, arts & crafts … even all-natural pet treats. Operating cost for your Excalibur Dehydrator is approximately 3 - 6 cents per hour. Using your dehydrator compared to traditional canning or freezing methods will prove to be well worth your initial low-cost investment.
