teflex sheets?
Posted by: happyvegan ()

I need some crackers or something! I'm craving crunchy stuff and dried seaweed just isn't cutting it. But my dehydrator is the old-school doughnut-shaped one and the only sheets it has to keep things (like tiny sprouted flaxseeds) from falling through the trays is just plastic, which I imagine gets no airflow and isn't conducive to quick dehydrating.

Are there teflex sheets for this kind of dehydrator, or is there something else I can use? Cheesecloth or something?

Thanks. smiling smiley

I have a similar kind of dehydrator - actually 2 of them. For a similar drying situation, I used simple parchment paper you can purchase at the grocery store. I made a template from cardboard and used this to cut out pieces of parchment paper which I laid in the dehydrator. It worked fine.

Great idea! I actually have parchment paper already, so I'm gonna go start soaking some flaxseeds. smiling smiley

plastic wrap is also very good for wet, gooey or sticky stuff. it doesnt get hot or burn or melt in the dehydrator.

I also use Prachement Paper, I cut it to the exact size. Sometimes in the middle of dehydrating, I'll flip over the stuff and it'll cook much better!

I use parchment as well. I lay the paper on my dehydrator tray, & press where the edges are so it has a slight indentation & then it's easy to see where to cut.
The nice thing about Teflex as I understand it, is that it can be reused forever.
