Dehydration Mode
Dehydration mode allows for slowly drying out food for
preservation and other cooking uses. Use the convection
mode for dehydration. Wolf accessory dehydration racks
(not included with the oven) are required. This mode is
suitable for drying a variety of fruits, vegetables, herbs and
meat strips.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
As a safety feature, oven(s) will
shut off after 12 hours. Dehydration mode overrides the
12-hour shut off.
DEHYDRATION ACCESSORY
Dehydration racks are available from your authorized Wolf
dealer. To obtain local dealer information, visit the find a
showroom section of our website, wolfappliance.com.
Additional instructions are provided with the dehydration
rack accessory.
WOLF TIPS FOR SUCCESS
•
Do not preheat when using dehydration mode.
•
Multiple racks can be used simultaneously.
•
Some foods require as many as 14 to 15 hours to fully
dehydrate.
•
Consult a food preservation book for specific times
and handling of various foods.
Foods must be dried to below .60 water activity or
dry to the touch to be safely stored with no danger of
mold, yeasts or bacteria growing. When in doubt,
dehydrate for the maximum time specified.
