Why do you dry mushrooms?

  Mushroom, a fungus that looks like an umbrella when mature. Part of them is edible, and there are currently 36,000 known species. Mushrooms are called Agaricus bisporus and belong to the order Agaricus. Mushroom is a kind of nutritious edible fungus, it is an ideal ingredient for various dishes. The dried mushrooms can not only retain their delicious fragrance but can also be stored for a longer period.

  The traditional drying method for mushroom

• Mushrooms can be dried naturally, but when drying mushrooms naturally, one must pay more attention to the temperature and humidity of the surrounding environment. If it is rainy, it is not suitable to dry the mushrooms naturally, which will easily cause the mushrooms to become moldy. Dry the mushrooms naturally, preferably when the weather is good, so that it is easier to dry the mushrooms. Generally, you only need to dry them for about 2 days. Although the methods are simple in operation and low in cost, they are of poor quality. When exposed to the sun, the fungus cover is easy to reverse, dull has no fragrance and is easy to be restricted by the weather.
• The moisture content of the mushroom itself is very high. Generally speaking, most of the edible mushrooms have a relatively large amount of water, and some even require more than 90% of moisture dehydration. The color of the mushroom is also a very important technical indicator. While drying, the color of the mushrooms should be kept stable and not blackened. This is affected by the humidity of the air during the drying process of the mushrooms.

What is the working principle of mushroom dryer

  The intelligent air-energy mushroom dryer developed by Henan Baixin Company is a kind of fixed dryer. Fresh mushrooms are placed statically in the drying room. The heat is circulated and transferred through the refrigerant by the function of the evaporator and radiator inside and outside the mainframe. It also absorbs the temperature outside the drying room, transports it to the inside of the drying room, and raises the internal air temperature. When the temperature in the drying room rises, the axial flow fan installed in the drying room blows the heat. The air flows over the surface of the mushroom, the hot air at high temperature will transfer heat to the mushroom, and evaporate the moisture in the mushroom gradually. At this time, the air humidity in the drying room begins to increase, and the high temperature and high humidity air pass through the condensation dehumidifier. At this time, the water vapor in the high-humidity air is condensed into water droplets and then drained through the drainage pipe. The whole process circulates back and forth, the water is evaporated in the material continuously, and then condensed and drained continuously, and the mushrooms are dehydrated and dried in this way slowly.

 

Advantage of mushroom dehydrator/drying machine 

• Environmental protection and safety. There is no open flame, no harmful gas, dust, waste residue, and other pollutants, no danger of flammability and explosion, and no damage to the environment.
• High energy saving. When the air energy mushroom dryer is working, electricity is only used to run the dryer, so the power consumption is very low, only 25% of the electric dryer. Mushroom only needs 1.52 kilowatt-hours of electricity, and win customers' favor.
• Simple operation. The air dryer is very intelligent. The user only needs to put the mushrooms in the drying room, and then press the power button, the dryer will work automatically, and it will automatically shut down after drying. The whole process does not require manual monitoring or manual operation. Not only simple and convenient but also improve the work efficiency of workers. 
• Fourth, the drying quality is higher. The air dryer has precise temperature control and constant temperature drying. The inside and outside of the drying process are heated evenly to ensure that the inside of the mushrooms are dried completely and the appearance is not damaged. The appearance, color, and nutrition of the mushrooms can be preserved to a greater extent, and the quality of the dried mushrooms is higher, the better it can be sold in the market.
• Strong adaptability. The air energy dryer can set different drying temperatures by itself to meet the drying needs of different materials (such as grains, fruits, seafood, vegetables, etc.), and has a very wide range of applications.
