looking for beef jerky tips

[Martha27]

I'm making my first batch of beef jerky and was hoping some could offer me some techniques and tips. I made a marinade and cut the beef in strips that are a little more than 1/8" thick, as thin as I could cut them. My questions are, what do you usually marinade it in? how long does it need to marinade? how long does it need to dehydrate (I have a dehydrator) how do you know when it's done? how long and how do you store the finished jerky? So pretty much looking for any info you can share on jerky making
Thanks!
