This is a great idea and for everyone saying that PVC is dangerous your crazy the tap I almost guarantee that the tap water to your house runs through PVC piping at temps a lot hotter than this is operating at

This is pretty ingenius ... I was scouring the net for a cheap dehydrator and you just showed me that I already have one!

How do you feel about lining the inside of the box with foil? I want to be careful about the temperature to preserve the live enzymes.

@MegaAdhesive glad you found it useful!

I think lining the inside with foil would increase the heat inside. That will speed things up, but one of the great advantages of this system over commercial ones is the low temp that doesn't cook the food. Not sure how much the temperature would rise by. Try both ways and let us know!
