First of all welcome aboard, Brian! Sounds like you’ve jumped in the deep end already – good for you! As for going 60 days or longer – of course you can, but the reward may not be that much greater IMO. I did go 60 with a rib eye and was surprised to find that percentage wise it did not lose much more weight than my preferred period of 45 days. My assessment was the 60 day was a bit more dry – OTOH it could very well have been the nature of the meat itself. Guess I should try another 60 to confirm my suspicion. Ron
