Two of my Capicola finished dry aging today (they reached their target weights) so I freezer sealed them for equalizing. How many weeks do you all let them equalize?

It’s interesting that they seemed to have dried differently. Were they dried in the same conditions?

I usually equalize them no less then 1/2 the time it takes them to dry. So 6 weeks drying no less then 3 weeks to equalize.

I always rotate my projects in the chamber every few. I have 2 spots that dry quicker.

Along with what the others said, the large part of fat on the one covers about 1/3 of it’s circumference. This could partially explain the discrepancy in the dried weights. Far dries slower than muscle.
