Ha! The oven?! 😬. Hope that's not a personal learning experience! I keep mine in bags with dessicants in a cupboard in the basement very close to a dehumidifier. Haven't had any issues but have been thinking about buying one of these for the cupboard as well: Arm & Hammer Essentials Disposable Moisture absorber https://a.co/d/3b3d4cP

Curious what people here think - is that just a waste of money (they last 60d)?

All this is good to keep an already dry filament from getting moist. To dry a humid filament, you need heat and air flow to clear the moist air away. Only an active dehydrator can do that.
