I used to think the whole 'dry-aging at home' trend was just for show-offs, but after hanging a rib subprimal in a dedicated fridge for 35 days, the flavor difference was insane. | Butchers - Talk Freely

What's a piece of gear or a method you were totally wrong about at first?
What did you use to control the humidity in your fridge, and did you have to mess with it a lot? I always figured that part would be a huge pain and ruin the meat if you got it wrong.
Honestly a lot of people overthink it at first. Just a basic digital hygrometer and some small containers of salt water to adjust levels. Did you find a certain humidity range that messed up your cuts the most, or was it pretty forgiving?
