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.
