Dehydrating/defrosting

Tips for dehydrating

To obtain a high quality dried product, select only unblemished, mature fruit.

Wash fruit thoroughly and pat dry, peel if desired. Unpeeled fruit will take longer to dry. Remove stones, stems or pips if necessary. Place fruit on a baking tray on a shelf in the oven.

To dehydrate foods, we recommend using TrueAero or AeroBake at 125°F (50°C).

Tips for defrosting

To defrost foods select the TrueAero mode and 125°F (50°C).

Select the shelf position(s) and place food that is to be defrosted in an oven safe dish in the center of the oven shelf.

Time taken to defrost will depend on the size and weight of the item being defrosted - it pays to check it regularly.

Tips for proving bread

Your AeroTech™ oven provides an ideal sealed environment to proof bread.

Preheat the oven on Bake at 80°F (30°C). When you are ready to proof the dough, turn the temperature and mode to off and place the dough in a covered bowl on a shelf in the warm oven. It will be the perfect temperature to proof dough and the AeroTech® oven is so well insulated that it will stay warm for several hours.
