I do not own, and have no previous experience using, a dehydrator unit. What advice would you offer to someone in my situation? Can I use an ordinary oven to work around not having a dehydrator? If not, what advice can you offer on obtaining a dehydrator? Thanks!

Hi William--If you oven can operate at 115 degrees F, that should do the trick--if you have an aerated pan, that will work best. You can use a "low-end" food dehydrator (in the $40 range). I have an Excalibur, which I purchased from a buy-sell group, and it was a fraction of the cost. If you do not plan to use a dehydrator often, I think your oven will work well. But, it is up to you. Here is a good resource that you might enjoy: https://www.amazon.com/Commercial-Chef-CCD100W6-Dehydrator-Preservation/dp/B075ZB3V9S/ref=sr_1_6?crid=42T9JBVHRP7N&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Zj29fTrmContDiti0pGHHDYlTMqiVAN_M0hw-SjfqMWHDFjrSTjuJJzp78PdpRPF7mdYauTQ1YisUYTkKL6yEtZmrM_CrzKH6Y33qBnbCpvFMxcmHn5LpUHEUsORUfXiwM1N9EOq6sZpwUCuVOWbWZmTsuduMQb2jPupN6Z336cOc8yPSHrxw4wIGPqH8Lr6Fc8ePGFJABNjAg_MicWEm1FVgI-oCFutjPhyn_nOayM.KnwnPg4gOUmNmSUrNXSHGbo9AWt9tgJGXeZ_TbvIsyc&dib_tag=se&keywords=food%2Bdehydrator&qid=1716256342&sprefix=food%2Bdehydrator%2Caps%2C77&sr=8-6&th=1 I will say that dehydrating food is great fun. Good luck, Char
