Stay Fresh Freeze Dryer
The Stay Fresh Freeze Dryer is a high-capacity home freeze dryer designed for families, homesteaders, gardeners, hunters, food-storage enthusiasts, and anyone who wants to preserve more food at home with greater control.
With the ability to process approximately 12–18 lbs. of fresh food per batch, up to 800 square inches of tray space, and as much as 3,600 lbs. of fresh food per year, the Stay Fresh Freeze Dryer gives serious food preservers the capacity needed for garden harvests, meat, fruit, complete meals, leftovers, dairy, herbs, candy, and long-term food storage.
A patented smart freeze-drying algorithm helps automate the process, while multiple drying methods give both beginners and experienced users the flexibility to choose how they run their batches. Advanced features including RTD temperature sensors, a motorized ball valve, independent vacuum valve, solid-state heater relay, and industrial-grade glass-to-metal seal feed-through are built into the system.
Major components use stainless steel and aluminum construction, and the machine includes dedicated Candy Mode for faster and easier freeze-drying of sweets.
