It is aimed at serious home preservers, cafés, caterers and small producers who want bigger batches. Load the trays, close the door and start the program – the unit freezes the food, then removes the moisture under vacuum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow freeze drying works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFreeze drying (also called sublimation drying) first freezes the food, then lowers the pressure in the chamber so the frozen water turns straight into vapour without melting. Because the food is not cooked, its structure and characteristics are largely retained, and it can be rehydrated later by adding water. Packaged correctly, freeze-dried food can be stored for extended periods.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated drying capacity: 6–8kg of fresh food (wet weight) per batch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 × SS304 stainless steel trays on an aluminium rack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVRI-16D vacuum pump – low noise, no oil mist\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in compressor for the freezing stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntelligent drying program with high-definition colour display and real-time status\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClear observation window to check progress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpgradeable control system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eChoosing a size\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eTrays\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCapacity (wet weight)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVacuum pump\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/dfd-04-freeze-dryer-4-tray\"\u003eDFD-04\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2–4kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVRI-4D\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/dfd-06-freeze-dryer-5-tray\"\u003eDFD-06\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4–6kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVRI-8D\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDFD-06 Pro X\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6–8kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVRI-16D\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeed more than 8kg per batch?
