I seem to be getting a lot of FD vids in my feed, probably because I subbed a couple channels recently. I have a small Pro HR I got a couple of months ago, it runs version 5.5. I don’t know if it’s just me or a newer machine or what but I haven’t experienced the fails you say have or could happen. I’ve used the rectangle Kemps and Great Value (Walmart brand) ice cream sandwiches. I’ve cut some into long “sticks” or in half or thirds.. but also left some completely whole… and they come out great every time. I don’t change anything, letting the FD run whatever cycle it wants to. I don’t know if you just like the tiny squares you make or …? I like whole sandwiches. I’ve also bought quart ice cream, cut them out of their packaging and then made entire slices (3x5-6 inch slabs) sliced thin, and they come out fine. I did try thick slices but they didn’t dry properly. So thin it is, but they come out great. Grids look interesting.

Amazing ideas!! Thanks for sharing! The newer versions of the software and newer machines have helped with the older issues. They are a lot smarter now. I did the small squares so they would be in ready-to-eat pieces for backpacking, etc.

So. My ice cream always explodes. What am I doing wrong? When do I turn the pump on? I'm brand new and so confused. Do I not turn the pump on at all and it will turn on in it's own? I was closing the valve and hitting the button to turn the pump on. Should I not do that?
@sophossurvival11 ай бұрын
You should never have to turn your pump on or off. It plugs into the back of your freeze dryer and always stays in the ON position - the machine will tell the pump when to turn on and off. It should only turn on once everything inside is frozen rock solid. That’s where your problem is, the pump is turning on before everything is super frozen (-20 degrees or so)

We tried the Fat Boys and cut them into 4 sections. We added 8 extra hours of dry time. They all seemed great but after 12 hours in a vacuumed sealed jar they lost 1/2 their volume and were soft. So disappointing. Don't know what we did wrong. It's raining today could that be an issue? We have it in our house in air conditioning, latest software. Any tips welcome.

Also, you don't have to put space between them. Just pick up the whole sandwich pieces and place on the tray. Goes much fast and same end result. 🙂
