The elongated, rectangular shape of this appliance offers an advantage over the round dehydrator. Not only can it be set up in a more space-saving way, but the air flow is directed lengthways through the appliance above and below the drying grids and can therefore absorb more moisture in a shorter time. This means that the drying process runs very evenly over 24 or 48 hours and all residual moisture is removed from the food to be dried. This is the successor model to our Italian dehydrator from Tre Spade in Milan. Compared to its predecessor, one thing has changed: The motor block is now positioned on the outside, making the appliance appear a little more spacious. However, its versatility has remained the same: In raw food mode, it can be dried really gently at 40 °C. Fruit, vegetables, herbs, seeds and mushrooms can be preserved to a high quality (also for home-made instant broths), fruit leather and cereal products can be produced or home-made pasta, meringue and baked goods can be dried.
