Thank you for answering so quickly, Julia. Whew. Do you avoid the center racks (rack 4 & 5) to set the icing? Or do all areas work well on it?

I love your artistry and creativity. I have been a member of your stencil club for a while and they are gorgeous, as is everything you do. This site is a wonderful resource for learning. Thank you.

Thanks for the kind words. The fan is in the back of the dehydrator, so it seems to hit all racks fairly evenly. Though hot air rises, so I tend to position things to the middle to lower part of the dehydrator, just in case. I rarely mass produce cookies, so I rarely have it fully filled at any one time except when teaching classes. In class, cookies have done fine on the top racks too, but I primarily use the dehydrator for quick-setting the outer surface of small cookies. I don't put very big cookies in there (the icing on them tends to wrinkle for some reason) or leave anything in much longer than 15-20 minutes.
