Looks like you have quite a production line going on the paprika.

Very little of the sweetness is lost in this process.

Pick the peppers when they are red ripe. Cut into bits with the seeds.
Spread on a cookie sheet and heat in a convection oven at 150 F. I run the oven for 1 hour at a time; it can take three hours to get the bits dried for grinding.
Take the sheet outside and grind small amounts; don’t over tax the little coffee mill.
Keep a Kleenex handy...

Cheers, and thanks Johnny for posting my pix.
