I have no adverse vacuum performance change with the catch can in place. It just catches any oil. I still smell oil vapor when the pump first starts up, but not nearly as much. I've only emptied the can once or twice since I've had it installed. I slightly over filled the pump and it blew out into the can, then ran it with the FDer valve open for a few minutes. Nothing got past the can. I used the outside port as IN and the middle one as out. I did take the port off and the longer one should be the inlet port. It's not a great deal longer.

Harvest Right has created the world’s first high quality, affordable Home Freeze Dryer. It is less than one quarter the cost of comparable freeze drying systems, and is easier to use than a microwave.
The current and emerging food crisis in the United States has millions of Americans very concerned about the future. From supply chain shenanigans to food processing plants “inexplicably” being compromised to bird flu decimating the poultry industry, it’s pelo wonder there has been a sharp rise in the “prepper” food industry.
There are many different commercial appliances available, all of which are especially designed for your specific needs. Here are a handful of the various subcategories of commercial appliances that you can get.
Granted, most of that time is the freeze dryer doing all the work, but the process is not without effort. Once the food is ready it must be put into appropriate containers with oxygen absorbers and sealed properly so they can last.
Isolated pump by capping the stack (no meter to measure pressure, but pelo bubbling after a very short pumpdown - pump sounded normal for a high vacuum situation)
Easy preparation. Food is prepared for freeze-drying the same way food is prepared for regular freezing. After rinsing and removing blemishes, blanch most vegetables; pretreat fruits if necessary to prevent browning; meats can be freeze-dried cooked or raw; casseroles are typically assembled from already cooked foods.
nove) The last port to insulate required the top be removed. Before I removed the top cover I replaced the side covers. This keeps the back and front panels structurally rigid. Do not remove both the side panels and top or you will have problems reassembling as things get very loose.
You can determine when the product is dry by feel or by calculation of the amount of water remaining in the product.
In my opinion, the absolute best place to buy a home freeze dryer is Harvest Right. We’ve had a medium-sized Harvest Right unit for more than 5 years, and it’s still going strong. You can check out their current online sales and promotions via this link.
Many online stores (taking Harvest Right as an example) have sections of their websites devoted to all the different benefits of using freeze dryers, explaining how to freeze dry, how it affects nutrition, and all other additional info you may need.
This product does not come standard with a new freeze dryer order. Current customers with an older model freeze dryer will need an get more info adapter for the oil free vacuum pump. Harvest Right will provide the adapter free of charge.
Learn the value of drying foods at home, the nutrition that you will have from dried foods, and how to set yourself up for success while drying.
It's hardly the most exciting GoPro video for sure, and some may think it's about as interesting as watching a tree grow, but if you really want to see the Harvest Right "in action" in order to understand what's happening (not that there's much to see), this provides a "speeded-up" way to do that!
