    I especially enjoyed this video, because I lived 3.5 years in the Panama Canal Zone back in the 80's. It's a lovely place and I have the fondest memories. I'm glad to see folks are happy there and businesses are thriving.

    Eric,
    I loved this “reveal”!! I have been watching you for two years basically for charcuterie. I have been in the food business for most of my life with a 25 year detour in the USAF. Our family makes frozen filled pasta, specializing in toasted ravioli (Louisa Food Products). I have recently retired dedicating my time to most things food, making bread, cheese, cured meat, but this modern creation of freeze drying is super interesting. I just bought my first Harvest Right XL. So I will continue following you and others in this cool niche.

    Loved this interview. We bought an XL Pro for our bakery business here in Canada. Waiting for it to arrive. I loved the anecdotes of Eric's life in a different country. We are all presented with different challenges and it's great to hear how he has overcome so much. Thanks again!

    Thank you for all your videos and all the Great information. I am going to purchase a HR freeze dryer. I was wondering what your opinion was on if I should buy a large or an extra large I am starting a business. I am a first time free dryer.

      Awesome! Welcome to fun and creative world of freeze drying. I was starting over and had the options today, I'd select the XL and although it's a lot of product at first, you have room to grow and not have to take on another machine. In addition, I think the resell value of an XL if you choose to get rid of it is much better than the small units because you could always find another business owner to take it. If you haven't purchased yet, I'd appreciate if you used my affiliate link: affiliates.harvestright.com/1974.html. Harvest Right will know I sent you! If you need any advice or help getting off the ground, I offer consulting so just send me an email and we can chat.

    Would a Room Dehumidifier or AC Help Climate Control Issues For Freeze Drying Foods ???
    (Cool Watching Ancient Freeze Drying Technology Before Replicator Technology Came Around).

      Yes of course but humidity can easily be hard to control if your dehumidifier isn’t working or you don’t have one in the facility yet.
