The dehydrator is similar to what I have, except the mine does not have a fan. The chart, and the general instructions on dehydrating, will be most helpful. OT--Thanks for sending us Curtis Joseph. I was a bit worried when Hasek decided not to return. However, I think Curtis will be a welcome addition to the mighty Wings. Good luck on your pepper jelly. When I was up north, I got some pepper jelly made with Michigan tart cherries. YUM! Mark "Mad Dog" Barringer http://home.earthlink.net/~mdogdrum/index.html
