Hi it will dry out after a while anyway but depends on when you are getting the bosc if you want it to dry quicker take it all out and lay in in a open warm area very thinly it shouldnt take long

you could allways put it in the oven for a while on a low heat that will dry it out, and them dial gauges arnt very accurate.
