About Dehydrated Cow

Dehydrated Cow is an independent guide to drying food safely at home. The name covers its two halves: dried meat (jerky) and dried milk, plus the fruit and vegetables most home dehydrators spend their time on.

What you'll find

  • A drying chart with temperatures, prep, and doneness tests.
  • A yield calculator based on simple mass balance.
  • Guides to jerky safety, fruit and vegetables, and nonfat dry milk.

Where the guidance comes from

Temperatures and safety steps follow the USDA Food Safety and Inspection Service and the National Center for Home Food Preservation, linked on each page. Dehydrated Cow is not affiliated with either.
