Bead drying question

How long does it take for 4 oz. of beads to dry in the oven or hair dryer?
I had them in the oven at 150 degrees for an hour and they still look clear/opaque and some white. 20%,50% and 30% respectively.
I then tried drying with a hair dryer for 10 minutes and they didn't change much.(High heat, low speed)
Are we talking hours in the oven?

Throw them in the freezer. They will dry out in 30 mins.

Re: Bead drying question

I always use a hair dryer, 4oz might take 20 mins.

Never thought about the freezer. Have you had problems with the beads cracking?
