Curious about the square pans. Why not just put 2.5 pounds of food in each tray and pre-freeze them that way? Harvest Right and others sell matching plastic covers for the trays too. What are the advantages of pre-freezing in the square pans instead?
@SchoolReports Күн бұрын
Good questions. 👍 We do sometimes put the food directly in/on the trays. We often have many dozens of the blocks (up to 150+ blocks) in the freezer waiting for the freeze dryer. That would require up to 15 sets of trays. One of the other reasons we prefreeze in the pans is so the food is pre-portioned and ready to bag in the amounts we want.

The control group did what was expected. I was surprised to see some browning on all the others, though it was where you scooped out the core.. I wonder if the metal baller had some interaction. The rest of the others appeared to have no difference between salt or ascorbic acid. I didn’t see any difference between the amounts used, though maybe it was just my failing eyesight.
@SchoolReports Күн бұрын
I don't think it is caused by the fact that the scoop is metal, I'm pretty sure it's because of the damage the blunt "cutting" edge does to the apples. (yet another variable to test for) Next time I"ll be cutting the apples with the corer/slicer machine; the sharp knife apple slices don't turn dark as fast as the slicer machine apples do. In real life it was easy to see the difference between the 1/4 tsp and the 1/2 tsp, but they still all looked great for sitting out for 7+ hours. After stopping the test I put them in the fridge and they still looked about the same 3 days later.

@jerryfarr3175 I have had Fruits go soft in the bag with an O2 absorber in them, but I’ve been able to narrow it down to one of two things: either there was too much humidity in the room afterwards (after bagging, sealing, waiting a day or two, but then leaving the bag in the room during another freeze dry run and the humidity getting really high), OR the fruit (Black Plums) just doesn’t get fully dry. I’ve had this fruit dry, go through the weighing process @SchoolReports suggests, confirming the trays aren’t losing more weight “and should be dry” only to press the flesh part of the fruit with my fingers and it “mushes” like there’s still water in there.. returning to the freeze dryer for several more hours, weighing again and there being no change other than getting the same mushy result as I press the fruit’s meat. Believing it must be me, I bag them up, the O2 absorbers do their work, and a week later I feel the bags and can feel all the fruit inside has a rubbery feeling to it. It hasn’t happened with any other fruit I’ve freeze dried, just the Black Plums I specifically bought the freeze dryer for (these particular black plums are only available for 1 month each year, there are several varieties of black plums).
@SchoolReports 6 күн бұрын
@@MisterEMystery That sounds very interesting! You wouldn't happen to know the sugar levels of your Black Plums, would you? I've read that some varieties of very sweet black plums can have brix readings of 20+, which could put them up there with the sometimes hard-to-dry pineapple. Have you freeze dried ripe Comice pears? I wonder if your plums are any thing like Comice in texture; they never get "crunchy." They do dry completely, but remain very soft and have almost no structure. Freeze dried pieces just melt in your mouth like cotton candy.

We almost always leave the peel on, unless we know the batch is planned for rehydrating for making apple pie or other filling. We have had no issues with the apple getting soft. - That should not happen. It is harder to freeze dry the thicker slices be cause it will take exponentially longer to dry as the thickness increases. Where a 1/8" slice may take X amount of time to dry, a 1/4" slice may take 4X to dry. Maybe they weren't 100% dry; either that or the bags are not good enough and they are allowing moisture to get through. I did have that happen once.

@SchoolReports 11 күн бұрын
I'm not against vacuum sealing the bags (as long as there are oxygen absorbers included), except for the cost of the chamber vac, time (maybe a minute or two per bag, times thousands of bags), and the potential of crushing some delicate foods (if using bags), e.g. tomato slices, green beans or other delicate items. Plus, most vacuum sealers leave significantly more of oxygen in the the bags than oxygen absorbers. I suppose doing both doesn't hurt. I have no plans to get a chamber vacuum for Mylar bag sealing, though I would like to do nitrogen flushing of the bags like commercial bags are often done. (I just never got around to it) One concern I would have with vacuum sealing is that because the bag has a lower pressure on the inside vs the outside, there will be a pressure pushing the oxygen in.

@@the.phoenix.k I've found that for most bread/cake type items, wrapping them in damp paper towels, putting them into a plastic bag, and giving some time, seems to work pretty well. I haven't tried it yet, but I've heard that steaming them may be successful. Most of them are also great while still dry. In the upcoming video about pizza we will try to show how to rehydrate them. Here is some older testing. (And, sorry, I have to apologize for many of my older videos. In my focus to keep my older videos very short, most of my older, shorter videos are almost devoid of information. I tried hard to keep the videos down to less then 10 or 15 minutes, no matter what I had to cut out! - Like information!) 😁 Rehydrating Experiment: Pillsbury Crescent Rolls Cooked and Raw - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iobcfX6fip2rqdUsi=97ZmnEQxYS5_DI5Q&t=177 English Muffins - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJm9f4mKeMyfnNUsi=n34HWVPGAgOf8Xd7&t=128 Chocolate Chunk Muffins - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eInJnGWhequepLssi=9MheoktwVV2ueEHU&t=369

@@SchoolReports Thank you! I will be watching those! I haven’t seen your storage room in a few videos, did you still have it? And if so can you make a video with a tour of it and how you keep track of inventory? For example: is it better to be in a hot or air conditioned room? Texas garages get hot fast and I want to make sure my food won’t spoil or not be good! (Sorry for all the questions, I’m learning :) )

Love this peeler! This is the comparison video of the old vs the new peeler, in case you're interested. Apple Peeler - Old vs New - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJSlmot6jNdsbqssi=KZbqDTJuO2bN1PzD

I have been on the fence about getting a peeler for years. This might’ve pushed me over the edge.

I'm not a fan of adding kitchen gadgets if you're not going to use them enough, so I not going to encourage you to get one unless you think you'll use it a lot. But, we have used ours (this one and the one we have before this one) to peel and/or just slice many, many hundreds of pounds. We just peeled and sliced 60 lbs of apples, in perfect, even slices that I never could have done by hand with a knife. This is the comparison video of the old vs the new peeler, in case you're interested.

Nice! But how to figure the angle of the pan 😂 Oh wait I guess I could measure the bottom and then the top of the pan and then draw a line!

Also, assuming you're using the same pan, I did put a link in the description to a printable template of the shape.
