Chad, This is what Chris Michalek posted to the list 2 years ago, and I
saved it and used it on the Stucker this year.
"I wash the seeds off and rinse them several times to get the pumpkin
guts off of them. Then in the final rinse water I add a tablespoon of
bleach. This seems to prevent them from getting moldy as they dry out. I
dry them on an old window screen suspended under a heater vent. This
helps them dry evenly with good air circulation. If I had a food
dehydrator I would use that because you could process more seeds quickly
that way."
Hope it helps!
