My work gives me several options to dry my incoming harvest, curious if anyone has any opinions on which is best?
Convection oven, temperature can be lowered
Typical fan/filter method as illustrated in the sticky
Placed in a box to create a chamber, and pump dehumidifed, or dessicated air in (Could get too hot? No control over the temperature, i've seen it as hot as 125F)
Freeze dry.
Any thoughts? Thinking of picking up a bag of hops from the local store that have already been dried, and trying them all to see if freeze drying can over-dry them, if thats possible, I have moisture measuring equipment to check percentages and be accurate, just wanted thoughts.
