Chrysanthemum is a perennial herbaceous plant of the composite family. Its dried flower head is typically used as a medicine. The moisture content of fresh chrysanthemum is very high, even more than 80%, while its petals are the opposite. Its head is difficult to lose water due to its tough tissue, while its petals are very soft and easy to dry. Its head is often used as a medicine though its tissue is very uneven. Dried chrysanthemum is widely used for tea. The chrysanthemum tea smells fragrant, tastes sweet, and is good for digestion and refreshment.

Customers have higher requirements for the color, aroma shape, and taste of dried chrysanthemum which shall be the very same as fresh chrysanthemum. For this purpose, fresh chrysanthemums can be dried only after steamed. Its head shall be dried on a strong basis while its petals shall be dried in the opposite way. The current traditional drying process, that is, steaming and then drying in the sun, is completely subject to the weather. The pedals are always dried up too much, even fall off, and the dried chrysanthemums can’t meet quality requirements.

As an environmental solution, the KINKAI chrysanthemum dryer has freed customers from restrictions of the weather and ensures that the dried chrysanthemum is complete, lustrous, and parched properly.
