Chilli drying - Chillis dried using wasted heat from a monitor

Step 3 Lay out the chillies

Allow enough space for air to flow freely between the chillies. There is no point placing chillies on plastic areas where air does not exit the device, also try to avoid blocking the vents completely. It's probably best to dry a few chillies at a time rather than piling up 2 kg on top of a device and it overheating.

If you can't dry everything at once, keep fresh chillies in the fridge until there is space in the hot air.
