So I scored a great deal on a monster beverage cooler, and had a couple of bone in rib-eyes left over. I put in a full box of rock salt in bottom with a temp/humidity gauge. On the way is carbon filter bags to help aid with purity and a small fan for circulation. I was looking into a UV sterilizer, but not just yet. I am going to wait 50-60 days before cooking. Has anyone done this? Any advice? I have used those UMAi bags, which removes the moisture but read that it is not true dry aging because air cannot get to it. Made meat look awesome, but did not really give you that buttery flavor. Here are some pics:

I've dry aged some in a beer fridge but not to that extent and haven't tried the bags! Makes me want to try it. Let me know if you try the bags.

Someone on here did this a few years ago. I cant remember who though. Maybe a search in the recipe section?

That's a nice looking fridge. Looks brand new. I remember the dry age thread as well. I don't remember who posted it either. RedRanger are you referring to Market street? They have a similar set up as Superduty.

They have a similar set up as Superduty. I actually believe it was me, but I was using the UMAi bags,...which I did not notice a lot of flavor change just a lot of shrinkage. UMAi bags DO NoT allow the circulation of air to properly age, only allows air to escape, Not true aging for the best flavor.

The monster stickers are etched glass (double panes) actually it is a high end table top beverage cooler. The "M" is lighted from inside the panes on the etched glass. I can switch it on and off. It is actually very expensive looking. Like this: Here is mine..white Led: Green Led: Both on: Back, front of mine...it was made for the cashier to get the drinks, not self serve. Saw a used one for 850.00 on eBay.

Thank you, going to go to 60 plus days. https://theorganicbutcher.com/blogs/news/dry-aging-at-the-organic-butcherAt about 60 days, you stop really developing the classic dry-age flavor, because the aerobic enzymes have consumed all they can. But you can continue to dry it at that point. The beef will keep losing moisture, which concentrates flavors. It's just like reducing a soup. All the collagen, fat, nutrients, and minerals get more and more concentrated as you lose water content…. You're creating a craft, nuanced, interesting product.

When I was a kid, my fathers meat plant had a dry age room. Back then they had sawdust on the floor. They would hang big bone in 103 rib racks on the wall until they grew hair.
I never cared for the flavor myself.

Well carbon bags and fan came in today. The fan might be too big size wise, but has 3 adjustments. Will work in a pinch. Going to order a smaller one so I can put a larger cut of meat on bottom next time. I know bag came off hook but do not want to adjust it.

How big of a fan is that Superduty? I have a 3.5"X3.5"X1.25" fan that is 12 volt. You're welcome to it. It came out of an old power supply.
