Jim ButlerI actually got a heck of a deal on a used “Gladiator” garage fridge/freezer. I think it will work very well for dry aging. The large bottom compartment is a freezer, but the smaller top can be either freezer or fridge. The temp is controlled by adjusting the size of the opening from the chiller unit fan that blows cold air into the compartment.
I bought it used on Craigslist, but there are tons of cheap fridges on there all the time. And for a fan, I’d put a small box fan inside a regular fridge. The door won’t have any issue sealing over the power cord, and you’d have excellent airflow all the time.
