started the drier at around 4PM yesterday, now, 17.5hrs later the I'd say the bananas are a little more than half done. The grapes are not that close. I can report both are extremely tasty in this state of partial dehydration but I will resist! 😂
Funny. The internet says to shake/roll the grapes a little so they don't stick to the trays. But our trays have fairly large holes so even just the act of pulling a tray out results in escape of little marbles! so we'll just let them be and deal with the results at the end. 😆

drier filled! two big red mixing bowls full of (unpicked) grapes filled 8 trays and I added some bananas for the last two.
set for 135°F
The internet says the grapes will take about 48hrs. Bananas should be less than that.
We got this drier probably 10 years ago at Cabellas. Love how much we can stuff it full!

grapes over the deck are now picked. I managed to get at least some of them in the bucket lol
The blue bin is probably 80 pounds? #fruit #harvest #portalberni #grapes

trying something new! going to make raisins with a bunch of them. we have a big drier so it should put a decent dent in the bin of grapes.🍇

progress shot. I have about half of this 10' x 4' section cleared. Achieving about a 80% hit rate on the bucket lol
steady rain now ☂️ #fruit #harvest #portalberni #grapes
