Unfortunately, we do not have any personal user experience with this product, but I would be happy to forward your question to the community; perhaps a community member can help you with it.
The main difference lies in the drying racks: the product with manufacturer number 0076.71 is supplied with three plastic racks, while the linked item 0076.70M has three metal racks.
I always put the grilles in warm water with a little washing-up liquid to soak and remove any residue with a cloth/sponge/brush. It's worked like a charm for years.
Hello Ametzeler. I bought the Dörrex here a few years ago. It came with the instructions that you can download above. The recipe book was not enclosed, but can be ordered free of charge using the order form (enclosed) or directly on the Stöckli homepage and downloaded free of charge. https://stockli.shop/downloads.
"If you want to dry frozen fruit, you should defrost it first. You can also thaw the frozen fruit in the dehydrator, but then you have to make sure that the thawed water can run off or is collected.
Experience shows that this only works with shock-frozen berries and fruits (e.g. those from the shop), as the cell walls are (hardly) destroyed and not all the juice runs out when thawing.
I have just clarified this internally - unfortunately our supplier of the Stöckli Dörrex cannot find the desired accessories :( I hope you will find a way to dehumidify the filament coils 😺
I have never removed this. Switch off the Dehydrex, turn it over and shake out what comes out. I've had mine for a few years and things fall out every now and then. Three months ago, the heating system broke. I ordered a new one from Stöckli and rebuilt it myself. I had to open the appliance and there was practically no dirt or debris in it.
