Giles:

That's fine I guess, if you can actually set your oven that low...  (mine's a 
newer convection oven that won't set below 175 degrees Fahrenheit).  
Personally, I'd be afraid of the plastic canisters melting in the oven.  At 300 
degrees Fahrenheit, 50 grams of silica gel dessicant takes about three hours to 
completely re-activate.
