5 Tray Excalibur Food Dehydrator D500 (With Timer):

Take a closer look at the 4 key engineering features that make the Excalibur uniquely different & better than other dehydrators.

Many of our mechanically-inclined customers want to know what goes on inside our dehydrator that makes it work better than all the others.  Here’s the “inside story.”:

Design superiority:

• Commercial features throughout, derived from our commercial dehydrators.
• Large-capacity, square box design gives maximum drying space and efficiency.
• Back-mounted fan, heating element, controls remain spill-free.
• Parallexx™ drying system heats and dries all trays evenly.
• Adjustable Hyperwave™ thermostat fine-tunes the heat so you don’t over/under dry.
• Timer (optional) lets you “set it and forget it” while you’re sleeping, at work, etc.
• Removable trays slide in and out easily for convenient loading, unloading.
• Easy to clean with a damp cloth.  Trays are dishwasher-safe.
• Easy-access door simply lifts off.
• Looks great in any kitchen.

Material Quality:

• Built to handle ultra-heavy use: 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, years on end.
• Polycarbonate materials (same as jet plane windshields!) are virtually indestructible.
• Highly heat resistant, remains cool to the touch, doesn’t give off harmful fumes.
• Superior to single-wall stainless steel dehydrators made for homeowners – they get hot and dent easily.
• Trays are rigid and extremely durable for long life – far superior to metal oven racks!
• Flexible polyscreen inserts (optional) lift out for easy food removal and easy cleaning – other dehydrators don’t have them!
• Excalibur Premium Paraflexx™ sheets (optional) are top-quality, 100% non-stick, ideal for sticky or liquid-y foods, safe up to 500°F for baking.

Broad Versatility:

• Dries virtually anything that you’d ever want to dry: dried fruits, vegetables, soups, stews, beef jerky, fruit rolls, yogurt, crafts, dry flower bouquets, drough & clay art, much more.
• Fine-tune, adjustable thermostat lets you choose the exact temperature you need.
• Removable trays let you customize drying space for small or large items – e.g. yogurt by the quart (impossible in a stackable dehydrator).
• Expanded versatility with “super” non-stick Paraflexx™ sheets: handle sticky or liquid-y foods.

Exceptional Performance:

• 10-times faster tha others with our high-efficiency Parallexx™ Horizontal Airflow Drying System.
• Holds up to TWICE the food per load than common round dehydrators.
• Just 4 to 5 cents of electricity an hour to operate – dry a full load for less than 25 cents.
• High-tech drying utilizing Hyperwave™ fluctuation*.
• Laboratory testing proves performance superiority: faster, more efficient than others, better food quality, color, and taste.
• ONLY dehydrator that dries food dries enough to powder (for baby foods, etc.).
•  Used daily in small commercial businesses, universities, restaurants world-wide.

Plus…Excalibur leads the industry in development and testing programs:

For 33 years, we’ve constantly expanded our knowledge of the mechanics of dehydration including airflow, heating dynamics, materials, and much more.

We keep our test kitchens busy, too, with an ongoing program of research and development – for example, our recent discoveries about Hyperwave Fluctuation Technology*

*HYPERWAVE™ FLUCTUATION TECHNOLOGY:

Any dehydrator will dry food.  Excalibur dries better, faster, and safer thanks to our Hyperwave™ Fluctuation Technology!

Ordinary dehydrators produce constant, unchanging heat causing “case hardening”, a dry surface with moisture trapped inside – a perfect environment for yeast, mold, and bacteria growth.

Excalibur’s adjustable thermostat lets you take advantage of Hyperwave Fluctuation (changing heat through the drying cycle) for faster, better safer dried foods.  As the temperature fluctuates up the surface moisture evaporates.  Them as the temperature fluctuates down the inner moisture moves to the drier surface.  The food temperature stays LOW enough to keep the enzymes active, and the air temperature gets high enough to dry food fast, overcoming yeast, mold, and bacteria growth and spoilage.

I DON’T CARE ABOUT ENGINEERING FEATURES. GIVE ME THE BOTTOM LINE.

“HOW DO I BENEFIT FROM THE EXCALIBUR DEHYDRATOR?”

• You’ll save money on food bills when you buy & dry foods in bulk.
• You’ll preserve & savor every fruit & garden vegetable you grow.
• You’ll preserve fish & meats FAST – just 4 hours.
• You’ll dry more easily, less expensively than canning or freezing.
• You’ll eliminate preservatives & additives in the food you eat.
• You’ll give your kids (yourself, too) healthy alternatives to junk food.
• You’ll dazzle your taste buds with high-flavor foods (flavors intensify with drying)
• You’ll dehydrate a full load of food just just 25 Cents worth of electricity.
• You’ll dry home crafts, flowers, dough creations.
• You’ll make it pay for itself in no time.
• You’ll savor luxuries on a shoestring: commercial sun-dried tomatoes @ $20/lb. vs. pennies/lb. when you dry your own tomatoes.
• You’ll slash your food storage space – no pantry, no freezer necessary.
• You’ll have a stash of high-energy, healthy foods ready to go hiking, jogging, etc.
• You’ll provide high nourishment for those with special dietary needs.
• You’ll make your own healthy baby food for pennies.
• You’ll try it yourself for 30 days and get your money back if not satisfied.
