Food Freeze drying at home

[Thunderbird]

Harvest Right has developed a freeze drying processor suitable to freeze dry your own garden products, meat, meals etc. Does any one have any experience with one of these? I am sorely tempted, I have a fortune invested in freeze dry but the opportunity to add varieties to the commercially available products with known product flavored like I want it is tempting. Although the capacity is limited we should be able to offer some service to others. Looking for input from experienced users.

I have one but they don't show you the pump that is beside the dryer which uses oil and if you don't use it properly you will have a oil spew. Glad I have mine in the basement. That being said I'm glad I got it. If you decide to get one try and get them to pay for the shipping if you live in the east because shipping is expensive!
