Harvest Right Home Freeze Dryer

Harvest Right Home Freeze Dryer

Investing in a Harvest Right Home Freeze Dryer can lead to significant cost savings by allowing you to freeze and store meals for extended periods. After a few days, you will no longer have to throw away fruits and vegetables in the fridge. By preserving your food, you can imagine how much you could save in the long run.

In addition to the cost savings, freeze-dried food can last up to 25 years, making it an excellent option for those who like to eat healthily and have healthy emergency food supplies stored for unforeseen disasters. It's also perfect for backpackers and trekkers, as freeze-dried food is lightweight, fresh, and nutritious. You can even freeze-dry entire meals for long camping trips.

For serious gardeners, Harvest Right Freeze Dryers are a great way to preserve the nutrients and freshness of fruits and vegetables. Once you pick your crop, it begins to lose its nutritional value, but you can retain those nutrients and freshness with freeze-drying.

For busy individuals, freeze-drying food can save time and effort, and there's no need to compromise on taste. You can freeze-dry full meals, desserts, and any food you can think of. The food retains 97% of its nutritional quality and no changes in taste, shape, or size. By freeze-drying your home-prepared food, you can be confident that it is free from additives and harsh chemicals in store-bought foods.

How does Harvest Right Freeze Dryer work?

Harvest Right has introduced a superior method for preserving food known as freeze-drying or lyophilization, which is much more effective than traditional canning and dehydrating methods. Freeze-drying involves rapidly freezing the food and extracting the ice by placing it in a vacuum, producing a dehydrated product. This innovative process is ideal for long-term food storage.

Step 1: The shelves freeze fresh or cooked foods at -40°F or below.

Step 2: After frozen fare, the appliance generates a solid vacuum to enclose the dryer's freeze-dried food. When the freeze-dried food is gently heated, the solid ice within it sublimates, transforming directly into gas. This resulting water vapor is then released.

Step 3: After the freeze food dryer unit has thoroughly dried the food, it is taken out and enclosed in packaging impervious to moisture and oxygen to maintain its freshness until it is opened.

Step 4: Once you are prepared to consume the food, add water to it, and it will restore its initial fresh taste, scent, consistency, and look.

Freeze-dried foods have widespread usage among astronauts, campers, backpackers, meal manufacturers, and military personnel due to their extended shelf life, making them a viable choice for emergency food reserves.

Let's compare freeze-drying with other ways of preservation.

• Freeze Dried Foodstuff can last up to 25 years.

• Dehydrated Foodstuff can last up to 4 years.

• Canned Foodstuff can last up to 3 years.

• Frozen Foodstuff can last up to 2 years.

It's worry-free and easy to use.

You can initiate the process by pressing the start button and patiently waiting until you hear the beep indicating it's complete. Upkeep, which involves replacing the oil filter and oil, should take at least a few minutes.

How much electricity does a Harvest Right use?

To make stainless steel freeze dryers more affordable, they must consume electricity efficiently and minimize power usage. Therefore, every possible step has been taken to ensure this appliance runs affordably. A typical small home stainless steel freeze dryer also uses a standard 110-volt outlet, and the stainless steel freeze dryer uses about 9 to 11 amps (990-1210 watts) of power per hour per batch on average, with a peak draw of around 16 amps.

Is a Home Freeze Dryer worth it?

Although individuals producing nutritious and long-lasting foods in their homes appear promising, a thorough cost-benefit evaluation of storing freeze-dried meals must be conducted since it can be expensive for the average person.

For the average prepper, utilizing standard dehydrators, mylar bags, and oxygen and moisture absorber packets would be a more cost-effective option shortly.

It only makes sense if you use the home freeze-dryer unit a lot.

Suppose you must be committed to storing a significant amount of your food and are willing to complete all the necessary preparation and regular processing. In that case, it may be wise to hold off on freeze-drying. However, if you have a group and can split the cost and usage of the machine, this could alter the situation.

The Harvest Right freeze dryer is an excellent device for preserving food items but ensuring that your usage justifies its cost is essential. If you intend to stock up on a considerable amount of your freeze-dried food storage or-dried foods, then it may be worth investing in this machine, even at the current price.

A Freeze Dryer Unit applies in long-term emergencies, Medical crises, or Political Turmoil.

Having freeze-dried home-cooked meals that can last for 25 years is necessary. In particular "SHTF" situations, such as the failure of nuclear power plants to properly cool their waste, there may be more significant concerns than having a 20-year food storage supply. Although this may sound pessimistic, it's worth noting that there are many scenarios in which such an ample food supply may never even be used.

Freeze-dried food can be a good trade item and offer the lightest load for bugging out.

Alternatively, having a substantial stockpile of freeze-dried food with an extended shelf life can be a valuable asset for trade with others. In an emergency evacuation, freeze-dried foods would provide the most excellent value for transporting the weight.

Freeze-dried foods retain their nutrients and can preserve them for several decades, unlike other methods of food preservation. Free-drying could be a suitable alternative if you find canning and freezing too time-consuming.

A Freeze Dryer Provides a Space Efficient Way To Preserve and Store Foodstuff

Consider the amount of water and fluids you store when using a deep freeze or canning to preserve food. Storing 100-quart jars can take up significant space, whereas freeze-dried foods can be stored in more compact conditions.

This makes freeze-drying a sensible option, mainly if you reside in a small space like an apartment, as it saves both time and money while freeing up your living and storage space.

Having Your Freeze Dryer Can Inspire You To Be Creative With Foods Or Follow A Diet During A Crisis

While excellent freeze-dried food options are available, they may need to align with your dietary or nutritional requirements for optimal health. Conditions such as diabetes require careful food selection and nutrition. With a freeze-drying unit, you can plan and prepare a nutritious diet that meets your specific nutrition needs, empowering you to take control of your health.

Get creative and have fun experimenting with your freeze-dried meals. Add dried mushrooms to your beef slices and freeze-dried sour cream for a stroganoff-style dish, or make a freeze-dried fruit pouch with blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and apples. With so many options available, the flavor possibilities are endless.

Excellent For Small Businesses and Farmers or Homesteaders That Produce A Surplus

We've carefully considered the pros and cons of home freeze-drying and believe it to be a fantastic innovation with immense potential for small businesses, such as farms. For example, if you grow blueberries but struggle to sell them quickly, a freeze dryer can help you create a high-value product to offset costs and generate profit.

Moreover, you can preserve seasonal fruits and vegetables without heating your house, as with canning or cooking down sauces. While I enjoy canning, as a small farmer, freeze-drying is an exciting idea.

Freeze Dryer Produces Better Quality

If you're into freeze-dried food for prepping, camping or backpacking, you're likely familiar with the steep price tag that comes with the price of purchasing organic freeze-dried meals. However, with our meal storage method, you can enjoy more appealing meals and use the highest quality ingredients.

Power Issues During A Long-Term Emergency

Our large freeze dryer requires a 220-volt service, so it's essential to have an outlet that can handle this. While it's a valuable tool for everyday freeze-drying needs, it may not be practical for more extended emergencies where power is scarce.

In such cases, small and standard-size freeze dryers are more suitable as they operate in homes and businesses using a standard 110-volt plugin. While it's possible to power the smaller models using a solar panel and battery system with an inverter, reserving this power for other needs may be wiser unless you have a more extensive setup.

Weight

Freeze dryers can be pretty heavy, with the most miniature model weighing 85 lbs. If you plan to move it frequently, a movable cart is recommended. The standard-size model weighs 105 lbs, while the large model weighs 147 lbs.

Opting for the stainless steel version increases the weight by 20%. While weight should not be a significant concern, it's essential to be aware of the size and weight of the unit before purchasing. If you plan to use it often, setting it up in a permanent location may be the best option.
