Additional Information About Weight Loss

When hanging beef for dry aging, the percentage of weight lost typically falls between 10% and 20%, depending on several factors, such as:

  • Length of Hanging Time: For a standard 14-day aging period, the weight loss is usually around 7% to 10%. For longer aging periods, such as 21 to 30 days, weight loss can reach up to 20%.
  • Environmental Conditions: Factors like temperature, humidity, and airflow affect the rate of moisture loss. Optimal conditions (~1°C/34°F and 80-85% humidity) minimize excessive weight loss.
  • Type of Cut: Bone-in cuts generally lose less weight compared to boneless cuts. Leaner cuts will also lose less weight than fattier ones.
  • Trim Loss: In addition to moisture evaporation, the dried surface of the beef (the "pellicle") must be trimmed before sale or processing. This can account for an additional 5% to 10% loss in usable weight.

Total Yield Loss: Combining moisture loss and trim loss, total yield loss after hanging can range from 15% to 25% of the carcass weight.

This is a price guide only. Weights will vary depending on the animal. Not all animals are the same, so there may be slight variations in the weights.

Burton Family Beef

We are Beef Cattle Farmers situated on the Western Downs. Our Farm is nestled in the foothills of the Bunya Mountains where our cattle are raised and grazed on sweet scrub country. We pride ourselves in producing quality, quiet cattle that carry significant weight for age. Our cattle are finished on fodder crops of Barley, Millet, Forage Sorghum or Leucaena and improved pasture. It’s very much a family affair with Karl and Felicity at the helm and their three boys - Kory, 7, Marcus, 5 and Theo, 5 the main little ringers of Burton Family Beef.
