The Parallexx design, with a temperature controlled, fan forced, horizontal drying system mounted in the rear is exclusive to the 2000 series. The same features found in Excalibur's USDA approved commercial model in an afforbale home model.


Why the Excalibur?


Excalibur offers the turbo charged Parallexx Drying System. Millions have discovered the benefits of food dehydration. Healthy, nutritious, and tasty food at a huge savings. Now Excalibur makes drying easy. For centuries food has been dried in the sun or open air - a lengthy, messy and difficult process inviting contamination and spoilage. With the introduction of electric dehydrators the drying process was improved. But most manufacturers offered round stackable models with a heating unit in the bottom. Excalibur pioneered a rear--mounted equipment package allowing horizontal or parallel air flow - The Parallexx System.

AppleBite into a Juicy Red Apple
 
You are experiencing the full potential and complement of vitamins, minerals, and enzymes nature provided in that compact package. There's no nutritional loss due to the heat of cooking, nor loss of water soluble vitamins and minerals. If your apple was organically grown, you aren't ingesting artificial preservatives, food dyes, or other man-made chemicals, simulated sugars, or 'enhancers'.
 
Dehydrating is the best way to preserve the essence of a raw apple, as well as other fruits and vegetables.
 
Dehydrating doesn't subject foods to high temperatures associated with traditional canning methods. For safety reasons, low-acid foods are heated to temperatures of 240F degrees in a pressure canner. High-acid produce reaches a temperature of 212F in a water-bath canner. When a raw food is heated to an internal temperature of 120F or higher, much of it's nutritional value is lost, especially enzymes. Canning also leaches out water soluble vitamins and minerals, which further depletes the healthful qualities of raw-living foods
 
One aspect, not previously mentioned, is Excalibur's solid dark door. Some vitamins are light sensitive and are destroyed when exposed to light. Excalibur's opaque door and light blocking cabinet are designed to minimize light sensitive vitamin loss. Many 'typical' round dehydrators have transparent trays and covers, affording maximum light penetration to the food being dried.

FruitPower Boost for Fresh Raw foods!
When you make your favorite smoothie or other raw food beverage, add powdered fruits or vegetables to the recipe. For example, if your beverage contains carrots, add a tablespoon of carrot powder to a cup of carrot juice for an even higher degree of nutrition!
 
Keep your pantry stocked with dehydrated fruits and vegetables, so that you can add a big power boost to supplement those fresh fruits and vegetables that you have on hand.
When you use an Excalibur to stock your pantry, you can be assured the fruits of your labor will be the very best!
