soooo, with the excalibur so new and exciting (and me new to RAW and dehydrating) i have a couple questions.

1. once you dehydrate stuff like cookies and bread, can they be stored in a jar or do i need to refrigerate? are they good for more than a week?

2. i assumed that crackers and chips can just be stored in jars indefinitely?

3. when dehydrating fruit, does it need to be dipped in lemon juice first or can i just plop it straight into dehydrator and have ongoing shelf life?

4. is there a basic rule about what to do with food or how long it lasts once it's been dehydrated?
