Wartmann stainless steel dehydrator WM-2206 DH, as good as new, no signs of use

The Wartmann WM-2206 DH dehydrator with 6 shelves makes no compromises when it comes to the choice of materials. It is made almost entirely of stainless steel (except for the electronics and mains cable) and achieves the best drying results with a top price-performance ratio and quiet operation.

The WM-2206 scores with this

The extremely compact Wartmann™ stainless steel dehydrator with 6 wire shelves is the ideal appliance for small quantities and limited space. The real glass front door provides a clear view of the food to be dried and, together with the switchable LED interior lighting, allows you to see the food and its condition at all times. The WH 2206 is also the quietest of the 3 Wartmann dehydrators. The low-noise fan distributes the warm air horizontally across all 6 stainless steel shelves, ensuring even and effective drying on the available 0.59 m² drying surface.

The desired temperature and drying time can be easily set using a touch control panel on the front of the appliance. This means that this appliance can also be placed high up without the control panel disappearing out of reach on the top of the appliance. You always have the drying temperature (adjustable from 25 to 90 degrees Celsius) and the drying time (from 30 minutes to 72 hours) in view, as well as your fruit and vegetables to be dried, thanks to the built-in real glass door, brightened by the switchable LED interior lighting. With this appliance, an area of over half a square metre can be used for each dehydrating cycle. This means you can dry quite a few kilos. Thanks to the double-walled construction and the associated insulation, the power consumption of 4.1 kw/h in 24 hours, when all 6 shelves are filled with apple rings, is an excellent value. In comparison, cooking in a conventional oven is much more energy and time consuming!

Another plus point to prevent unnecessary power consumption in stand-by mode: The WM-2206 DH has a main switch that completely disconnects the appliance from the mains.

Wide range of possibilities

The shelves measure 30 x 28 cm. This area can be utilised 100 % thanks to the ingenious holder in the appliance. The distance between the grids is 3 cm. Drying whole mushrooms, plums or bananas without removing the shelves is normal with the WM-2206 DH.

Everything can be gently dried with this dehydrator, whether fruit, vegetables, herbs or flowers. Or prepared food, such as juicy smoothie rolls, savoury crackers, tender biscuits, crunchy granola and hearty salad toppings.

The Wartmann is a reliable companion in the healthy kitchen for keeping food warm with pinpoint accuracy or for maintaining a constant temperature for fermentation and proofing processes.

Drying under raw food conditions

Did you know that the gentle method of drying at temperatures below 50°C has been proven to provide a higher spectrum of vital substances, flavour, appearance and health effects? As a result, these home-made treasures are of a quality that is rarely available to buy, except of course from our exquisite Keimling Naturkost range.

Create your own really-raw world with this sophisticated dehydrator from Wartmann.

It has to be quiet and even

The Wartmann WM-2206 DH has a relatively quiet fan that blows an even flow of air over the 6 stainless steel shelves. This makes it possible to dry all the food on all the shelves at the same time.

Can be operated from the front

The temperature and drying time are set via a control panel at the front. This means you can plan to place the appliance at a higher level or stack several appliances. Incidentally, the drying temperature can be set from 25-90 degrees Celsius in 1 degree increments, which not everyone can do.

The built-in timer can also be finely adjusted from 30 minutes to 72 hours. The settings can be made on the control panel without any buttons or switches, so this surface can be wiped clean quickly with a damp cloth.

Everything thought of

A stainless steel crumb tray catches any products that fall to the bottom of the dehydrator and can be easily removed. The stainless steel door is fitted with a shatterproof glass viewing window, so you can easily see the progress of the drying process, while the switchable LED lamp inside provides an even clearer view. The shelves and crumb tray can be put in the dishwasher.

All Wartmann dehydrators have overheating protection. This means that the dehydrator switches off automatically if the temperature rises above 100 degrees Celsius.

As an important accessory, there are two types of suitable dehydrating film, silicone and PTFE. This makes it easier to dehydrate food that drips a lot, such as tomatoes or mango, without the dripping juices getting stuck in the grid structure of the shelves. The use of film also makes sense when making fruit loaves, crackers and herbs, as it makes it much easier to remove the dried food from the trays and prevents it from sticking or falling through. After an initial drying period, the films can then be removed to speed up the drying process.
