Questions about Weston Dehydrator Netting Sheets, 13.9 by 10.6-Inch, Black

First set I ordered in March were brown and great quality - sets I just ordered are black and horrible quality - why the difference?

Answer: I don't know. The ones I ordered were black but they seemed ok to me, exactly what I was expecting. I haven't had the occasion to use them yet.

Are these rigid enough that if i were to cut them to a mason jar size, would they hold down fermenting cabbage if a weight was set on it?

Answer: not sure if i understand your question. The netting is not heavy and is flexible. the purpose is to provide smaller holes on the dehydrating rack so that smaller foods would not fall through. I can't see it holding down cabbage in a fermenting pot or jar unless something else was on top of it. Sorry

Answer:

Answer: Yes — but you don’t even need a weight. Cut them to the internal diameter of the jar, then bend them to get them through the opening and they hold the cabbage down fine — they are stiff enough that the cabbage can’t force them up past the neck of the jar. But you will still need to add brine every other day or so for the first couple of weeks to keep the brine level above the cabbage.

Answer: They are very flexible and flimsy. They work very well for the job they were intended for. Any liquid would seep thru the mesh. The mesh would have to be the same size of the weight, but liquid would still seep through.

Answer: I would expect that it might work. They are fairly rigid.

Answer: Yes they are fairly ridged, I believe that would work.

are these fully metal? Is there a coating?

Answer: They are not metal at all. They are nylon or plastic.

Answer: They are plastic. I used them on top of the shelves that came with my dehydrator because the holes on mine were too large for many foods. Food did not stick, wash up easily, and you can cut them to size.

Answer: These are plastic. I would prefer stainless steel mesh but have not been able to find anyone that sells them. The plastic ones are probably better than using plastic wrap because thy are pretty thick plastic.

Did anyone try to use it as drainage mesh? Drainage mesh is used at the bottom of plant pots to prevent soil from getting out through drainage holes.

Answer: I did not use as a drainage mess...i think it would work!

Answer: Have not used it for that, but you can cut it any size, so it should work.

Answer: No. I just use it in my dehydrator for drying fruits, etc. But it's a tough material, so I can't see why it wouldn't work for your needs! Go to it pal!

Does anyone actually know what material these are made of?

Answer: That was one of my main concerns also; only thing I could find out is it is food-grade plastic. They worked well for laying large quantities of sliced food out on a shelf in my greenhouse. It was very quick - took only 1 to 1-1/2 days to dehydrate beets, carrots, onions, etc. in moderately warm weather. A long roll might be more convenient, but these were much more economical and worked fine.

Answer: The Weston site says polypropylene and BPA free.

Answer: I think it is food grade plastic.

What is highest temp they can be used?

Answer: I am very sorry I do not know. I have a large homemade dryer with approximately 6 shelves that works with two very large bulbs in the bottom of the dryer.

How flexible are these? I need some mesh that is very flexible. it needs to be able to bend at right angles.

Answer: The mesh is pretty flexible. You can bend it at right angles, but - there will be some curvature at the bend, and it will flatten back out upon release.

Answer: They are very flexible. Easily roll up to a small roll. If you need to have a sharp 90 degree crease, you could probably get it to that with some extra pressure or a bit of heat.

Answer: Yes the are very flexible and you can trim them to fix right.

Answer: This mesh is very flexible

What kind of plastic are these made of? are they bpa-free?

Would the mesh be small enough to put sunflower seeds on without them falling through?

Answer: Yes, It is a very fine mesh.

Answer: Yes, easily, judging from the ones I received.

Could this be used in a toaster over at low temps like 95F?

Answer: I would think so. I have used them in my dehydrator at 140 degrees. They are made for dehydrators and will easily take 160 degrees. As long as they are not resting on the heating element should be fine.They are also easily trimmed to fit.

Answer: They can stand up to temps of 160 in the dehydrator but I don't know about the small space in a toaster oven and the element being so close. Sorry not more helpful. ????????

Answer: Never tried that, but my guess is it would be fine, as long as it doesn't touch the heating element. My greenhouse is 110 degrees and hotter when I'm using it to dry foods in the summer, so the heat doesn't hurt it, but again, I wouldn't want it up against a heating element in an oven.

Answer: Don't know, might melt because the heat element could be too close and there is no airflow. Temp in the dehydrator would be warmer but air is always moving. I would not do it.

Answer: These are for dehydrator use, and most dehydrators go up to 135F at least.

From what material are these made?

Answer: not sure....seems to be some kind of plastic or poly product...you may want to check with the manufacturer. We have used them in the dehydrator and they work fine for the elderberries we have been drying.

Answer: Appears to be a heat resistant nylon, is made to stand temperatures inside this drying oven. Confirm with Weston Products,t heir customer service is pretty good. These are easy to wash in dishwwasher top rack

Answer: I dont know. Probably a strong nylon mesh

Answer: Plastic

Answer: Mesh plastic.

Are these washable or disposable?

Answer: Washable. I just put mine in a sink of water and rinse off later or they may only need light rinsing depending on what you dried on it.

Answer: They are washable....I hand wash mine.

Answer: They are washable. I have used them a number of times already, and no problems so far.

Answer: I have washed mine

How big are the holes in the sheet?

Answer: The screen mesh holes are about 1/8" sq, a bit larger than a normal window screen. About what you would want when drying food (that is why I bought them).

Answer: the holes are no more than an eighth of an inch at the widest part

Answer: They are quite small. I dehydrated celery and they shrink a lot. Nothing falls through.

Answer: Its a very small mesh. I use them for drying chopped onions and herbs.

I want to dehydrate sprouted wheat. Is the mesh small enough to keep the sprouted wheat berries from falling through?

Answer: Never tried sprouted wheat, but I think it is small enough- it takes a real tiny crumb of something to go through the screen on mine.

Answer: Yes, I think so.

are these dishwasher safe?

Answer: Yes, they do real well in the dishwasher. I've had mine for a year now, no problems.

Are these shipped flat or rolled up? I have a similar mesh which was rolled up and it was a pain to get to flatten out...

Answer: Mine were shipped flat. No issues with them rolling.

Answer: Rolled up. Really not a problem to get them flat except for a little on the ends. For me this helps to keep things from sliding off.

Answer: We ship these flat.

Answer: They are shipped flat. Great product. Easy to trim.

Answer: They are flat. and a whole lot easier to deal with.

Answer: Mine were here flat did not have any problems at all they came in excellent shape

Answer: Mine were rolled and I put them under some heavy books for a couple of weeks. It helped.

Answer: Flat

Can these also be used in the oven? If so what temperature ranges?

Answer: If they are kept far away from the element. Great for dehydraters and low indirect heat. A friend tried them in his smoker and they melted and caught fire.

I have a homemade fruit dryer and I placed these on my shelves and the fruit dried perfectly and did not stick on the netting.

Brenda Jo : Roll up - fill a bag!

These things make removing food from the trays SO easy! Just roll it up stick an end in the storage bag and most of it just falls off into the bag. No fingering of each piece and a little bit of scraping with a a spatula and it’s done!

Amazon Customer : Four Stars

VERY nice product. A little trimming and it fit perfictly.

Amazon Customer : They are one of the best purchases I have made on Amazon

The sheets work above my expectations and I use them for more items than anticipated. They are one of the best purchases I have made on Amazon.

Amazon Customer : Four Stars

VERY nice product. A little trimming and it fit perfictly.

Nancy Kopca : Nice quality.

Looks like the edges may be curling after one use, but I hope not. They worked well. Hope they last.

Amanda Of Alaska : Good for smaller stuff to dehydrate.

Used in a Coleman dehydrator. I set them on top of the regular racks for small grapes, and carrot shreds. Works great. they do slide around a little so fixing them in place somehow is now my next project. Not as stiff as I would have liked, but they do indeed work. I did run them through the dishwasher and they came out fine. All in all I give four stars.

fishcuz : This product came at the right time and was easily trimmed to fit my trays

This product came at the right time and was easily trimmed to fit my trays.

Kinglewe : even though description said black) were awesome - 5 stars ++ - loved them so much

Very confused - first set I got in March (they were brown, even though description said black) were awesome - 5 stars ++ - loved them so much, reordered on May 1 - got a cheaply made set of black ones - curled in the dehydrator - had to throw some out b/c they were so bad. Figured I ordered wrong ones, so reordered from original order - again, just got the cheaply made black ones...I don't know why or what changed but will be returning both black sets and sticking with my original purchase.

amazonreview : Money well spent.

Good value! Works well for drying sliced fruits/vegetable. Can trim is too large for your tray. Durable and washable.

Sue Lewis : I have a homemade fruit dryer and I placed these ...

I have a homemade fruit dryer and I placed these on my shelves and the fruit dried perfectly and did not stick on the netting.

Val Fambrough : Good product

Only received 9 sheets but the quality of the ones I got were good. Just wished I got all 10 since I generally fill my 10 tray dehydrator.

Amazon Customer : Five Stars

Awesome product. Easy to clean. Use them all the time.

Cecil : WORKS WELL

HAD TO MAKE FIT MY DEHYDRATOR,BUT WAS EASY TO DO.

Lori Mc : Weston Dehydrator Netting Sheet

Love the sheets. Use them everytime I dry stuff

Twana Garrett : Happy

Just what I expected and needed

Chelsea : Work great.

I read some reviews that complained about curling. I didn't find that to be so. They wash up great and the food doesn't stick to them. Great value too.

Lori Mc : Weston Dehydrator Netting Sheet

Love the sheets. Use them everytime I dry stuff

D. L. : Great Product

This netting is perfect.
My dehydrator is a different brand so I had to trim the sheets a little to fit my shelves.
Very sturdy product that's easy to cut with a pair of scissors.

I put mine to work right away drying basil leaves.
Most of my basil has bolted by now, but next year I'll be able to dry and store much more.
This netting would also work well to dry beans and many other things that would fall through without it.

Sue Lewis : I have a homemade fruit dryer and I placed these ...

I have a homemade fruit dryer and I placed these on my shelves and the fruit dried perfectly and did not stick on the netting.
