Does this works for dehydrating fruits and vegetables?

Yes, just look at the wet weight of what you want to dry and the ratings of the Mini Quick.I have used it for 6 months without incident.

You could use it for leafy things, like basil, oregano, mint etc. But for thicker vegetables like carrots or onions your better off getting a forced air dehydrator. It will dry your vegetables more quickly with less chance spoilage.

I don't, but I don't see why it wouldn't work for that. Just make sure you don't get it to cold and freeze the fruit.

Yes. For processing raw veggies it takes a little more time, but works great for small batches just fine.

Yes, as Janet said it does not work well with vegies. We haven't tried fruit but I can see it working better on fruit, however a lemon juicer where you squeeze the fruit on it might work just as well.We consider ours a waste of money. Instructions: Pretty simple ... Insert fruit - place the attachment on the Magic Bullet. Press down on fruit with plunger. Then MAYBE you get some juice.

I did use it to dehydrate a couple of years ago. I remember it worked well. I sliced fruit really thin to make fruit leather. Do a trial batch.

it will process fresh fruits & veggies, but don't try frozen fruits. it will destroy the cutter assembly! try putting as much liquid in first. good luck. after I had the Kitchen aid, I got a Waring Pro-same trouble. I finally got a NINJA and is wonderful

No. It's not a traditional dehydrator. It's for making chips, and does a great job for that.

I do not think it will work....surely you can just use a knife.It works so well for harder fruit and veg....celeriac or beetroot are a dream once grated with this 'machine'

Yes, it should work to kill bacteria and microbes on the fruits and vegetables. After adding the activated parts A and B together into the amount of water you want to purify, put the fruits and vegetables into the water and wait the recommended amount of time for the solution to purify the water. I would recommend that you prewash the F & V prior to adding to the treated solution, so you do not have any particulate in your treated water. Reserve the treated water for drinking.

This is great to dehydrate fruits but if you add a small fan on the bottom it will speed up the process.

It does work as a juicer but you have to strain the pulp out. It definately purees vegetables

It works great on soft fruit and veggies as you mention. Apples, onions and the like are out of the question.

never tried that way before, but it should be, just slower due to the size of the pieces... functionally speaking, the dehydrator will still work normally

I did some online research before buying this model, but I can't say I've ranked ALL the choices. I can tell you this dehydrator works well, is built to last, and performs as advertised. With 9 trays, it can dry several dozen apples or similar fruit at once. Well worth the money if you do much drying.

I have not tried it on vegetables. It failed big time with apples and pears :(

No, I don't recommend that. It will dry out the fruit. The nuts will be OK, though.

Nope. It works well on soft vegetables like peppers, but not on any hard vegetables. It's not strong enough.
