When I freeze dry liquids, I place the liquids into 1 quart zip top bags (don't over fill, just about 2 1/2 cups per bag) lay them flat and freeze. Then when they are completely frozen cut away the bags and lay the frozen "bricks" onto the trays and place in the freeze dryer. No drips or spillage. Easy peasey.
My daughter is 7 and likes to watch your videos with me. She is homeschooled and when you were talking about the candies and mentioned you were homeschooled she gasped and said "she's just like me"!!! 🥰

I must have missed where you talked about Gizmo passing. I am so, so sorry. I just lost my husband and my 16 year old Yorkie is very sick I'm praying I don't lose him right now. My prayers are for you. This was a fun video. Thanks for always keeping us in the "know".
Please don't take this the wrong way,I'm being sincere...but have you tried giving your Yorkie cbd suppliments? Its safe and legal to use,especially on senior pets...it is not the illegal marijuana that has THC. I think it will help. I wish I had known about it sooner@mght still have Prettygirl here.

Bless your heart, I'm so sorry for your loss. We lost the best cat ever to a seizure disorder at three years old, it's heart breaking. But I'm confident we'll see them again.

Hey fellow freeze dryer 😍 longer freeze drying won’t do much more for those candies that didn’t. Some candies have higher oil contents making them not freeze dry. As for gummie bears it’s all about what brand you buy. Try different brands and yes chocolate won’t freeze dry but chocolate ice cream will 😍

I've never heard of freeze-dried candy. Now I want to try it! I'm so sorry to hear about Gizmo leaving this world. Know you'll be together again in time. My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

Becky, I am sending prayers for you. We let our Daisy dog go to heaven on thanksgiving morning so we know just what you are feeling. They are running pain free! Daisy would have loved to get into a chicken coop too!

100% honest - your videos have not only educated me incredibly, but also helped me destress through finishing my thesis. Thank you for making such wonderful and uplifting content that you are so genuinely excited about! I'm a second season gardener (everything last year pretty much got eaten by groundhogs) and am looking for all of the help I can get, so I really enjoy your videos!

Hi Becky from England. It’s been so lovely to see all your family sharing the fun and preparations for your Thanksgiving holiday - we don’t have that here but we are doing a mini-Christmas the weekend before the 25th December which is the only time our family can be together. Hope you all have a wonderful safe Christmas and very best wishes to you all for 2022. Thank you so much for the happiness you bring to so many of us throughout this year in particular b😍😍🇬🇧☘️🎉🎉

So sorry for the loss of your precious Gizmo. On a happier note, I don't know if it's been said before, but your MIL is just fabulous. Thanks for sharing your fam with us!
Hi Becky. Based on some of the comments, I am sorry to hear about your Gizmo passing. I know how hard it is to lose a furbaby. Sending you blessings and hugs.

So, so sorry for your loss! My littles love when the dogs interrupt, they especially liked Gizmo. We lost our Chihuahuas 2 years ago last September, my old man Lucas passed first and then his wife Latte died a few days later from a broken heart. It’s just a hole that cannot be filled, but I’m so glad he’s no longer suffering his seizures. Run free in Doggy Heaven Gizmo! Love and hugs from Texas!

Becky, just a tip on freeze-drying: high sugar content items can explode or not freeze-dry well, if you do high-sugar foods, it may take longer, but for things like ketchup, people suggest diluting it with water, this way the sugar will be spread out and it will freeze dry better. Freeze drying process only removes water through sublimation, which is the process of getting water from solid state (ice) directly to vapor state, bypassing the liquid state. That can be done by getting the water below triple point, via low temperatures and low pressure. Fats can not be freeze dried. Therefore, chocolate will never freeze dry due to high fat content (cacao butter). If you want to store freeze-dried food long-term, you have to modify the recipes to eliminate any fats, oils, butter. It is just the matter of getting creative. Otherwise, the food will go rancid because the fats in it will go rancid. I love Skittles, mini marshmallows, both white and colored. Yogurt drops are nice too. You can freeze the chocolate silicone forms that are filled with low fat yogurt of your choice, fruit containing ones are better, then carefully pop them onto the tray and FD. But the best one is FD vanilla icecream. I buy mine from a local creamery that makes their icecream from real milk. Put the dollups of icecream on the parchment paper since they will be very delicate when done, they are THE BEST! My family loves them, including my dog! Remember to put your trays in the freeze dryer while it is pre-cooling for frozen foods, then take out the trays and fill them with your frozen goodies to avoid melting, pop them back into the machine and start the cycle. Use gloves to handle frozen trays. Don't mix pre-frozen and non-frozen food. Good luck! And I am truly sorry about Gizmo!

Hi, first off thank you for your comment. I find it very helpful I’m going to screenshot this for a reference. Do you know if you can dip the FD item in chocolate or caramel and it still be consumable? Also, do you think most store bought ice cream are too high in sugar to FD? Thank you for any answers you provide!
@@tariaynnajohnson6365 you can absolutely dip freeze-dried pieces of fruit or other things in chocolate or caramel, it will obviously be not for long-term storage but for immediate enjoyment. Freeze-drying creates a crunchy or fluffy texture, depending on what it is. Freeze-dried goods absorb moisture right away , but mixing different textures creates a twist. So, don't be afraid to experiment and see if you like the outcome. As for the store-bought icecream, people buy ice cream sandwiches and freeze-dry them, as long as the thickness is reasonable. Some people cut them up in smaller pieces. Increasing surface area is very helpful and efficient to FD properly. Try to freeze dry icecream, as long as there is no chocolate in it, I mean chocolate morsels and chunks, not the chocolate-flavored icecream that has cacao powder in it. That one is good. Chocolate chunks have cacao butter, and that is fat that won't FD. Good luck!
Candy doesn't need to freeze. Raise your temperature to 145 bypass the freeze cycle completely. Freeze should be OFF. Set for 2 hours dry time. Warm your trays and begin. If you don't have a candy mode, you can process candy in your test mode also. Candy only needs dry time, no freeze, and sugars will crystallize in the drying mode. Skittles honestly only take 20 - 30 minutes!
Freeze dried ice cream sandwiches are a favorite in my family. You have to make sure the temp in the freeze dryer is below freezing when you put the trays in. Also Charleston Chews are wonderful freeze dried!

So sorry about Gizmo. I had a bird dog that had severe seizures that we finally had to let pass. It's hard. They're our children and a big part of our families. I'm convinced that they are all running free and happy as could be, and very healthy.

Becky, I'm so sorry about Gizmo. I've been looking for where I might have missed you talking about him. I'm guessing it was on Instagram or...? I only do TH-cam so I'm guessing that's why I missed it. I lost my mini-Pittie a year ago Oct & I miss her every day. They become such an important part of our lives, it a big adjustment not having them around... 💔 I enjoyed this video - as always & it was fun to see the other side of the family having fun together! Have a good weekend.
Sorry about losing your special buddy. I lost my 15 and 16 year old dogs last year. They do give us the best days of our lives but one of the worst. You gave him a good home and life. Take care.
Hi Becky! I made your spinach dip tonight and it was amazing! I also made the Bacon wrapped dates, I overcooked them. They were still good! Love to watch your videos!!

I did skittles. They came out good. I did gummy bears but I didn't leave any space between them. They stopped expanding about 1/4 inch shy of the tray above them. One solid tray of a beautiful mess. I loved them after I spent a couple hours trying to separate them

If you’re going to freeze dry candy try putting either the mats that come with it on the trays before hand or you could use parchment paper a lot easier to get off the tray clean up is better
Thanks for letting us tag along. Wonder what bounty would turn out. It's an almond joy without the almond. Tootsie rolls might be good to drop into hot chocolate. Hope you had a great holiday. I appreciate you sharing.

Milk duds are my favorite freeze dried candy. Second would be marshmallows. And my 3rd would have to be peppermints 4th would be the starburst and then my number one all time favorite candy ever reg and freeze dried is nerd clusters. Gummy warms are also funny and yummy. A few months back before I had my son I ended up ordering a lot of freeze dried candy from a website 😂 I would honestly love to do it my self.

I’ve been told to turn the temp up to 145F when FD candy. I’ve only done it once and had similar results to you. Next time I’ll figure out how to turn up the temp. Next time try ice cream sandwiches! They’re awesome.
I forgot to tell you on a previous video that you were doing on garlic, living traditions Homestead has a garlic peeler on their Amazon affiliate page. I think it’s only around six dollars and they swear by it for peeling garlic easily and quickly. If I remember right, they are the ones that look like black and blue tubes. From what they had demonstrated, you just put a clove of garlic into it, rub/roll it back and forth A few times and a naked piece of garlic will fall out. That should make your garlic peeling go a lot faster for you. 💙💙💙
Cracker Barrel has lemon drops. They have two locations near you; Beaverton and Portland. I love your channel. You have a ton of instructive ideas. Keep up the good work.

If I remember correctly it takes longer for things like peach rings you might try the ones that didn’t do well do them together since they’re closer to the same kind
I'm so sorry Becky, I've lost four of my boys to cancer in the past two years . I'm thankful God blessed me with them for fourteen years and they were all rescue . I miss them very much .I'm so sorry for your loss xx
The medicalization of pets with all the unnecessary chemicals is what is killing dogs with cancer. Flea and tick meds, toxic heartworm and gastro worm meds combined, unnecessary vaccines. All for money. Did you know that merely 50 years ago small dogs lasted well into their 20s and large dogs 17 years+. Avoid GMOs in their food. Condolences to you. My dogs are 9, 5, 5,5 and I rescue, train, nourish and re-home 25 more per year! My cat is 18 1/2. All rescues. Some purebreds. Open your heart and home to more. Dogs need good people like you 🐾❤️🐾❤️💕🐾❤️🐾💕🐾❤️🐾💕🐾❤️🐾💕🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Peach Rings are soooooo good! I wonder if you would like actual watermelon if it was freeze-dried...might be something to think about! Will definitely have to try the Junior Mints when I get my freeze dryer. I am so sorry to hear about Gizmo, sending prayers your way!

Would you be willing to do a video where you talk about how and when you fertilize your vegetable beds? I never know, during the growing season, when to fertilize for maximum crop. Thanks!
Love this idea! Wonder what a sucker would do, you know the ones with a tootsie roll in the center? The outside, I imagine, would blow up like the jolly ranchers do but the inside would be interesting... Have you freeze dried marshmallow? Like a peep or any type of candy with marshmallow in them? Could be fun!
You should try worthers hard candy. I've tried that and is very good. For cocktails I would try cinnamon disc's hard candy. Yummy. I do love the skittles too.

Some of you guys have inspired me to start my on channel. i had a stroke a few years back i wanted to start a homesteading content. we have lots of animals but my left leg isn't to good so have to use a cane left hand doesn't work at all so walking around with a Camra while doing my chores just doesn't work. lol but as i was watching some of you guys freeze drying cooking, canning one day i thought what the heck i can cook and love cooking, canning and have a freeze dryer and love talking. lol i can put the camera on a tripod so I'm gonna do it i made three little videos just fooling round talking cooking shared on face book got great feed back so down loaded to you tube for a start pray for me pleas .
When I freeze dry liquids, I place the liquids into 1 quart zip top bags (don't over fill, just about 2 1/2 cups per bag) lay them flat and freeze. Then when they are completely frozen cut away the bags and lay the frozen "bricks" onto the trays and place in the freeze dryer. No drips or spillage. Easy peasey.
So sorry to hear about Gizmo’s passing, Becky. Sending you hugs from afar!
Wait what?!! Awww I didn’t see that shared anywhere? How sad♥️
Oh, no; I hadn’t heard. Poor little guy. I’m so sorry, Becky and Josh. ☹️
Oh no, so sorry for the loss of your sweet puppy.
Oh no! Becky I'm so sorry! I just lost my sweet Maggie last week. Broke my heart.
I am so sorry to hear about your sweet gizmo
Your willpower in not eating the candy while you’re prepping the trays is so impressive 😂
I thought the same i would have put one on the tray 1 in my mouth and repeating so onXD
Haha right! I thought for sure she would try at least one watermelon sour patch
I would've been sampling them as I go. 😋
I thought this same thing! No way that would fly with me 😂😂
Impressive is her middle name🙌🔥🕊️🙏🏼❤️
My daughter is 7 and likes to watch your videos with me. She is homeschooled and when you were talking about the candies and mentioned you were homeschooled she gasped and said "she's just like me"!!! 🥰

@@jgherity I believe she kept it to her stories. It must have disappeared by now.

I must have missed where you talked about Gizmo passing. I am so, so sorry. I just lost my husband and my 16 year old Yorkie is very sick I'm praying I don't lose him right now. My prayers are for you. This was a fun video. Thanks for always keeping us in the "know".
💛
Please don't take this the wrong way,I'm being sincere...but have you tried giving your Yorkie cbd suppliments? Its safe and legal to use,especially on senior pets...it is not the illegal marijuana that has THC. I think it will help. I wish I had known about it sooner@mght still have Prettygirl here.
I'm sorry,I'm so sorry about the loss of your husband too!
❤️🩹🙏🏽
I pray for your dog. Bless him
So sorry to hear the passing of Gizmo. May he rest in peace. Hugs to you, not easy loosing a fur baby.
So true. Sendind love💞 hugs 🤗🤗 s and 🙏🙌s to everyone who has had animals passing. God bless you all🤗❣🙋♀️

Bless your heart, I'm so sorry for your loss. We lost the best cat ever to a seizure disorder at three years old, it's heart breaking. But I'm confident we'll see them again.
So sorry that Gizmo passed. Our pets hold such a special place in our hearts forever.

Hey fellow freeze dryer 😍 longer freeze drying won’t do much more for those candies that didn’t. Some candies have higher oil contents making them not freeze dry. As for gummie bears it’s all about what brand you buy. Try different brands and yes chocolate won’t freeze dry but chocolate ice cream will 😍
And that’s why they last forever n a simple bag or jar, right. Some stuff is already preserved the way they are…? Right…?
Thanks!!!

Sorry for the loss of your furbaby. It's so hard to say goodbye.
100% honest - your videos have not only educated me incredibly, but also helped me destress through finishing my thesis. Thank you for making such wonderful and uplifting content that you are so genuinely excited about! I'm a second season gardener (everything last year pretty much got eaten by groundhogs) and am looking for all of the help I can get, so I really enjoy your videos!

Hi Becky from England. It’s been so lovely to see all your family sharing the fun and preparations for your Thanksgiving holiday - we don’t have that here but we are doing a mini-Christmas the weekend before the 25th December which is the only time our family can be together. Hope you all have a wonderful safe Christmas and very best wishes to you all for 2022. Thank you so much for the happiness you bring to so many of us throughout this year in particular b😍😍🇬🇧☘️🎉🎉
Hoping you all have a wonderful Christmas season from Texas USA!

So, so sorry for your loss! My littles love when the dogs interrupt, they especially liked Gizmo. We lost our Chihuahuas 2 years ago last September, my old man Lucas passed first and then his wife Latte died a few days later from a broken heart. It’s just a hole that cannot be filled, but I’m so glad he’s no longer suffering his seizures. Run free in Doggy Heaven Gizmo! Love and hugs from Texas!

I just did freeze dried ice cream a little bit ago turned out great my grandkids love it
Becky, just a tip on freeze-drying: high sugar content items can explode or not freeze-dry well, if you do high-sugar foods, it may take longer, but for things like ketchup, people suggest diluting it with water, this way the sugar will be spread out and it will freeze dry better. Freeze drying process only removes water through sublimation, which is the process of getting water from solid state (ice) directly to vapor state, bypassing the liquid state. That can be done by getting the water below triple point, via low temperatures and low pressure. Fats can not be freeze dried. Therefore, chocolate will never freeze dry due to high fat content (cacao butter). If you want to store freeze-dried food long-term, you have to modify the recipes to eliminate any fats, oils, butter. It is just the matter of getting creative. Otherwise, the food will go rancid because the fats in it will go rancid. I love Skittles, mini marshmallows, both white and colored. Yogurt drops are nice too. You can freeze the chocolate silicone forms that are filled with low fat yogurt of your choice, fruit containing ones are better, then carefully pop them onto the tray and FD. But the best one is FD vanilla icecream. I buy mine from a local creamery that makes their icecream from real milk. Put the dollups of icecream on the parchment paper since they will be very delicate when done, they are THE BEST! My family loves them, including my dog! Remember to put your trays in the freeze dryer while it is pre-cooling for frozen foods, then take out the trays and fill them with your frozen goodies to avoid melting, pop them back into the machine and start the cycle. Use gloves to handle frozen trays. Don't mix pre-frozen and non-frozen food. Good luck! And I am truly sorry about Gizmo!

Hi, first off thank you for your comment. I find it very helpful I’m going to screenshot this for a reference.
Do you know if you can dip the FD item in chocolate or caramel and it still be consumable? Also, do you think most store bought ice cream are too high in sugar to FD?
Thank you for any answers you provide!
@@tariaynnajohnson6365 you can absolutely dip freeze-dried pieces of fruit or other things in chocolate or caramel, it will obviously be not for long-term storage but for immediate enjoyment. Freeze-drying creates a crunchy or fluffy texture, depending on what it is. Freeze-dried goods absorb moisture right away , but mixing different textures creates a twist. So, don't be afraid to experiment and see if you like the outcome. As for the store-bought icecream, people buy ice cream sandwiches and freeze-dry them, as long as the thickness is reasonable. Some people cut them up in smaller pieces. Increasing surface area is very helpful and efficient to FD properly. Try to freeze dry icecream, as long as there is no chocolate in it, I mean chocolate morsels and chunks, not the chocolate-flavored icecream that has cacao powder in it. That one is good. Chocolate chunks have cacao butter, and that is fat that won't FD. Good luck!
Candy doesn't need to freeze. Raise your temperature to 145 bypass the freeze cycle completely. Freeze should be OFF. Set for 2 hours dry time. Warm your trays and begin. If you don't have a candy mode, you can process candy in your test mode also. Candy only needs dry time, no freeze, and sugars will crystallize in the drying mode. Skittles honestly only take 20 - 30 minutes!
Freeze dried ice cream sandwiches are a favorite in my family. You have to make sure the temp in the freeze dryer is below freezing when you put the trays in. Also Charleston Chews are wonderful freeze dried!

So sorry for your loss Becky. I know Gizmo lived a full and happy life with you.
So sorry about Gizmo. I had a bird dog that had severe seizures that we finally had to let pass. It's hard. They're our children and a big part of our families. I'm convinced that they are all running free and happy as could be, and very healthy.

Becky, I'm so sorry about Gizmo. I've been looking for where I might have missed you talking about him. I'm guessing it was on Instagram or...? I only do TH-cam so I'm guessing that's why I missed it. I lost my mini-Pittie a year ago Oct & I miss her every day. They become such an important part of our lives, it a big adjustment not having them around... 💔
I enjoyed this video - as always & it was fun to see the other side of the family having fun together!
Have a good weekend.
Sorry about losing your special buddy. I lost my 15 and 16 year old dogs last year. They do give us the best days of our lives but one of the worst. You gave him a good home and life. Take care.
Hi Becky! I made your spinach dip tonight and it was amazing! I also made the Bacon wrapped dates, I overcooked them. They were still good! Love to watch your videos!!

I did skittles. They came out good. I did gummy bears but I didn't leave any space between them. They stopped expanding about 1/4 inch shy of the tray above them. One solid tray of a beautiful mess. I loved them after I spent a couple hours trying to separate them
Wait why do gummy bears expand when freeze dried? That sounds amazing
@@XDemily2010 sugar expands. That's why skittles look like marbles when they're done
What brand gummy bears did you use?
Jacob is hilarious! This family is so darling and fun. The candy jars look scrumptious too.
Now I want to try some freeze dried candy. That was really fun to watch ❤️ it was nice to see your family together enjoying everything

"It's like communion" is the best comment!! 😂
I love when yo include family. Thank you for sharing
If you’re going to freeze dry candy try putting either the mats that come with it on the trays before hand or you could use parchment paper a lot easier to get off the tray clean up is better
Most can’t does not do well on the mats. They do not come with the dryer, sold separately.
Thanks for letting us tag along.
Wonder what bounty would turn out. It's an almond joy without the almond.
Tootsie rolls might be good to drop into hot chocolate.

Milk duds are my favorite freeze dried candy. Second would be marshmallows. And my 3rd would have to be peppermints 4th would be the starburst and then my number one all time favorite candy ever reg and freeze dried is nerd clusters. Gummy warms are also funny and yummy. A few months back before I had my son I ended up ordering a lot of freeze dried candy from a website 😂 I would honestly love to do it my self.

Becky I was so sorry to hear about Gizmo. Sending you hugs and love.
I’ve been told to turn the temp up to 145F when FD candy. I’ve only done it once and had similar results to you. Next time I’ll figure out how to turn up the temp.
Next time try ice cream sandwiches! They’re awesome.
So sorry to hear about Gizmo. Our fur babies are always in our hearts.
I forgot to tell you on a previous video that you were doing on garlic, living traditions Homestead has a garlic peeler on their Amazon affiliate page. I think it’s only around six dollars and they swear by it for peeling garlic easily and quickly. If I remember right, they are the ones that look like black and blue tubes. From what they had demonstrated, you just put a clove of garlic into it, rub/roll it back and forth A few times and a naked piece of garlic will fall out. That should make your garlic peeling go a lot faster for you. 💙💙💙
Cracker Barrel has lemon drops. They have two locations near you; Beaverton and Portland. I love your channel. You have a ton of instructive ideas. Keep up the good work.
I think the sugar content has a lot to do with whether or not candy will freeze dry. Caramel is so dense; it may work if it is cut into thin slices.

If I remember correctly it takes longer for things like peach rings you might try the ones that didn’t do well do them together since they’re closer to the same kind
I'm so sorry Becky, I've lost four of my boys to cancer in the past two years . I'm thankful God blessed me with them for fourteen years and they were all rescue . I miss them very much .I'm so sorry for your loss xx
The medicalization of pets with all the unnecessary chemicals is what is killing dogs with cancer. Flea and tick meds, toxic heartworm and gastro worm meds combined, unnecessary vaccines. All for money. Did you know that merely 50 years ago small dogs lasted well into their 20s and large dogs 17 years+. Avoid GMOs in their food. Condolences to you. My dogs are 9, 5, 5,5 and I rescue, train, nourish and re-home 25 more per year! My cat is 18 1/2. All rescues. Some purebreds. Open your heart and home to more. Dogs need good people like you 🐾❤️🐾❤️💕🐾❤️🐾💕🐾❤️🐾💕🐾❤️🐾💕🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I just finished Thanksgiving Video and here is this fun video! Yay! Sorry to hear about Gizmo Becky! He was such a doll! Hang in there!
Peach Rings are soooooo good! I wonder if you would like actual watermelon if it was freeze-dried...might be something to think about! Will definitely have to try the Junior Mints when I get my freeze dryer. I am so sorry to hear about Gizmo, sending prayers your way!
Hello, I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, and love all over the world, I would love 💚us to be good friends in honesty and in trust if you don't mind. I'm Doctor Christopher Johnson from San Francisco, California, where are you from if I may ask?
Would you be willing to do a video where you talk about how and when you fertilize your vegetable beds? I never know, during the growing season, when to fertilize for maximum crop. Thanks!
Love this idea! Wonder what a sucker would do, you know the ones with a tootsie roll in the center? The outside, I imagine, would blow up like the jolly ranchers do but the inside would be interesting... Have you freeze dried marshmallow? Like a peep or any type of candy with marshmallow in them? Could be fun!
I did the small tootsie pops, 2 worked out of about 12. Have no idea what happened ?
Freeze dried marshmallows are what is in Lucky Charms. 😋
You should try worthers hard candy. I've tried that and is very good. For cocktails I would try cinnamon disc's hard candy. Yummy. I do love the skittles too.
