 ### Two fruit leather trays are included. These are used for very liquid foods, such as fruit leathers (hence the name), ###
 EDIT: Fruit leather isn't liquid; as the name implies it's got a leathery consistency. I think what you mean is "very liquid ingredients, such as the syrups used to make fruit leather."
  
 ### drying times and even recipes. It was very helpful to me, particulary when I was a newbie dehydrator operator
 EDIT: particularly [spelling]
 EDIT: Add a period at the end of the sentence.
  
 ### Drying times vary tremendously depending on the humidity, the food's moisture content/ingredients and the size of the food particles. Most of the time my drying times are several hours more than the estimated times given in the owner's manual. I suspect that is because I have a tendency to cut bigger "diced" and "minced" food pieces than I'm supposed to. ###
 Edit/Comment: Might altitude have something to do with it?
