Infrared Vacuum Dehydrator -- "Raw Oven"
| Location: Makers Market |
Baking and frying food produce dangerous chemical byproducts, and prompt nutritionists to have us eat steamed or raw. Water boils in a vacuum at room temperature, and infrared heats efficiently. We combine both to make chips, crackers, breads, etc. that people truly love, in a healthy, low temperature way.

About the Maker(s)
Joseph Bagdonas
[
I was working in the UW-Madison Biochemistry Pilot Plant in the late '80s/early '90s, where I was inspired by Paul Stitt's work on flax seed/omega-3's ability to heal, ingredients that don't fare well in heat or oxygen. I'm also interested in wild edibles, herbal medicine, and, oddly enough, in the geoengineering idea of using near-earth objects/asteroids etc., moved into L1, to obstruct some of the sunlight/solar radiation that would have been naturally reflected off the polar ice, so that we can return the earth's climate to the 20th century average.
