    Awesome machine, cookin biker. I have a Simac that I bought in the mid 80's. Still runs like a tank. How long does it take to dehydrate the pasta in a dehydrator? I've always just cooked it after making it.
    It depends on a lot factors. Moisture, altitude are the first. We live at about 6.000 ft, very dry air. Our pasta dehydrated very quickly. We use the dehydrator for about 20 minutes to have a dry pasta like the commercial. Usually we dehydrate only the pasta without eggs.

    Like Molly I live "high and dry", and use a pasta rack for drying anything I won't be cooking right away (including egg pastas).  
    I broke down and bought a dedicated pasta rack:
     

     
    ...because using chair backs, broom handles, oven racks, etc were a pain.  Yeah it's a unitasker [/Alton] but works great, and worked even better when I discovered, over a year later, that the center post pulls out, and is a "half" tube that works fantastic to grab the cut pasta out of the machine, and then "roll" it onto the rack's arms.  d'Oh!

    I just ate pasta for dinner, but this is in an entirely different league.  I would eat a 2nd dinner of this if available!  Nice work!
