This Food Dehydrator Retains Living Enzymes

The Excalibur dehydrator is reputed to be the best dehydrator for preserving the nutrient & enzyme levels of living foods. The best technique for retaining the enzymes is to set the Excalibur on 40ºC setting throughout the entire cycle. That way the food temp will never go above 48ºC even after it is dry.

Dehydration is the Healthiest, Easiest, Most Economical Way to Preserve Foods!

The Excalibur has a Unique Drying System

Excalibur Food Dehydrator Unique Drying System

The Excalibur dehydrators feature the Parallexx™ Drying System for even drying.

  • Horizontal airflow provides even drying, eliminating tray re-stacking.
  • Drying is fast and heat is not lost as the dehydrator doesn’t need to be taken apart to change the tray sequence.
  • This temperature controlled, fan forced, horizontal drying system is mounted in the rear of the unit. Cool air is drawn in the back, heated and distributed evenly across each tray, pushing moisture out of the front of the machine.

The Excalibur is suitable for fruits, vegetables, fish & meats, herbs & flowers and more.

The Excalibur is the ONLY dehydrator that dries foods enough to be powdered!

We’re concerned about preservatives and pesticides in canned foods and fresh vegetables. We raise a lot of things in our own garden and dry them in my Excalibur. We don’t use pesticides so we don’t have to worry about it. I want to live a long time so I try to eat nutritious foods. It’s easier if they’re dried. —

The Excalibur Dehydrator has Exceptional Performance

Excalibur Food Dehydrator - better, faser, safer

Excalibur dries BETTER, FASTER & 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. Then 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.

Excalibur is the #1 choice of homeowners, small businesses, universities and restaurants worldwide

“A walk in the park” compared to canning! Here in Vermont, apples are plentiful and inexpensive in the fall. Although I ‘put up’ apple sauce, canning is labor-intensive. Dehydrating apples, by comparison, is sheer joy. We use dried apples for snacking, baking pies, and cooking. I dry home-grown herbs, too. Dehydrated foods are easy to store in plastic bags and the whole process is a ‘walk in the park’ compared to canning. I love it!

Can I dry anything other than food?

Yes you can! Many Excalibur owners are crafts people who dry craft projects and decorations, such as dried flowers and plaster moulds. You can even make your own dog treats!
