Silica Gel Drying Canisters 25-Pack for Dried Mushroom Storage

Keep your dried mushrooms protected from excess moisture with these 2g silica gel drying canisters. Designed for short-term mushroom storage, these mini desiccant canisters help absorb humidity inside storage bags, jars, and containers to reduce the risk of moisture buildup and mold.

If your mushrooms are almost dry or you are questioning whether they are fully dried, simply place a handful of these in a bag with the mushrooms and in 24 hours your mushrooms will be fully dried! 

Each canister features a vented, food-safe plastic housing that helps keep silica dust contained while allowing moisture to be absorbed. They are ideal for storing dried mushrooms in Zip-lock freezer bags, mylar bags, jars, or backup storage containers.
