    Curing Chamber Build - Take 2

    Made some more progress this weekend. I decided to mount the fan on the inside to "pull" air into the chamber instead of push. I think this will help the filter to function better as it will help seal it against the fridge. I did run into an issue. I only have one outlet in my garage, and the...

    Curing Chamber Build - Take 2

    While trying to cut a fan hole in my mini-fridge curing chamber, I punctured a freon line. Oops. I picked up a new (to me), full-sized fridge on Craigslist for $30. I'll post updates on my build here. Fridge is a little dirty. It's going to need some TLC, but this is the inside. I'm not...

    Bresaola - Green mold/slime HELP!

    I did look at your link, and WOW - nice work.  Here is my dilemma...humidity was up above 80% when I first hung them, which seemed to be the cause of the green mold and slime. My thought is to just hook the fan up to remove excess humidity, not to blow constantly or at preset intervals. I will...

    Bresaola - Green mold/slime HELP!

    Very helpful info on the ends hardening faster. My curing chamber is built out of a mini fridge - no fan right now but that will be installed before my next project. I will probably take these to 40-45% based on your suggestion. One is at 28% after 10 days (they aren't very big), and it doesn't...

    Bresaola - Green mold/slime HELP!

    Update: I purchased a ceramic heater and put it in the fridge and propped the door open. My hope being that the bulb would cause the fridge to turn on and circulate air. Temps have been staying below 60, so the fridge wasn't kicking on. I did this a few days ago and then left out of town for 2...

    Bresaola - Green mold/slime HELP!

    Hi everyone, I build my curing chamber a few weeks ago and was eager to try it out. I built it out of a gutted mini fridge, a crane ultrasonic humidifier, and an Ink Bird Temp/Humidity Controller. I didn't build in anything for airflow as I've read that opening the fridge once or twice a day is...
