My friend sets his to the lowest settting 30 degrees C and they are cracker dry by the morning.
He then grinds them to a super fine powder and caps them. Then into a ziplock bag with the air sucked out just before closing, put that into a jar and out of light.
This has served his friend well with still potently active shrooms two years later.
The guy I know who uses a food dehydrator...well, let's just say I won't be eating his shrooms, ever. They are consistently underwhelming and as a result of my experience with him/his shrooms I have a strong aversion to using any sort of heat to dry my mushrooms.
Capt_Bones, the brand of desiccant should not matter, I got 4 massive bags off of ebay for cheap. They're commonly used for keeping safe's dry, so anyplace that sells safes may have them, but personally, I think you can get em cheaper online.
As for CO2, I use baking soda and vinegar. I dump some baking soda into a half gallon milk jug then pour some vinegar into the jug as well. Once this starts foaming, I pour the CO2 from the jug into my mushroom jar. CO2 is heavier than air, so just pretend that the jug is full of water and gently pour it as you would water into the mushroom jar. Be careful not to pour any solution into the jar. You can tell when the jar is full of CO2 by lighting a match or lighter and sticking it into the jar. Once it's full of CO2, the flame will go out due to oxygen deprivation.
