Large vs Medium This Large freeze dryer will dry more food more efficiently than any competitor on the market. But how does our Large unit compare to our Medium? Let's go over the specs. Spec Medium Large Tray Size Five 9"x13" trays Five 18"x13" trays Avg. Load Avg 8 lbs. per 24hrs Avg 16 lbs. per 24hrs Max Load Up to 15 lbs. or 1 gallon Up to 25 lbs. or 2 gallons Size 20" x 21" x 30" WxDxH 24" x 25.5" x 34" WxDxH Weight (with pump) 110 lbs. 130 lbs. Specs: See Owner's Manual For More Specs Double the tray size/capacity of the Medium model Solenoid in the vacuum pump prevents backflow of oil into the chamber.  Overall Machine Size: 24" x 25.5" x 34", WxDxH 130 lbs Up to 25 lbs of food per cycle, with 16 lbs being a normal 24-hour cycle  5 trays.  13x18 standard cookie sheets Average freeze-drying cycles take 12-20 hours  120V, 20A Breaker  17 Amps Maximum Power Draw (2040W max) 12 Amps Average Power Draw (1440W average) Plexiglass Door Thickness: 1 inch Cubigel Compressor (R1270) - 1/2 HP compressor with 14.3cc displacement (larger compressor = higher cooling capacity = faster batches). This is approximately 28-43% more cooling capacity than competitor brands. 20-24 hour cycle time (compared to 48-72 hours for other brands) Vacuum Pump: Premium Rotary Vane Style, 10-12 CFM, 1 HP Power Requirements The Large Freeze Dryer uses a 20-amp Receptacle.  Most receptacles in a house are 15 amps. So you will need a 20-amp breaker and a 20-amp receptacle. Below is a link to the receptacle that is needed.  Link To Receptacle   What makes us Different: Here at Blue Alpine, we are serious about three things: freeze dryers, quality, and customer service. We have spent the last six years researching, engineering, and testing our freeze dryers to make them the highest quality possible.  Many small improvements add up to a massive difference in quality, and overall, a superior large machine. These are Built In Idaho with the highest quality components.   Our refrigeration system uses Cubigel compressors, a trusted name brand with excellent quality and longevity. More cooling capacity, which translates to faster batches (twice as fast as competitors with the large model). A circulating fan inside the chamber blast-freezes the food, creating better quality food and faster freeze times.  A P100 filter inside the chamber protects your vacuum pump from particulates, increasing the lifespan of the vacuum pump. Smart software utilizes PID control technology and solid-state relays to freeze-dry your food accurately. We use a natural refrigerant (R1270) that is future-proof, unlike R404 or R410 which will both be discontinued soon. On our machine, all vacuum fittings are barbed fittings. We do not use crimped fittings, which are prone to vacuum leaks.  We use a gasket material to seal all threads. We do not use Teflon Tape, which is also leak-prone.  The frame of our machines is made with extruded aluminum and is incredibly durable.   Recipes built into the software allow you to optimize your freeze-drying cycles.
