UMAI bags

[Meatball]

Does anyone have any experience with using the UMAI aging bags? I was curious about there charcuterie aging kit to make a capicola. The process of there's is interesting and was wondering about the end results.

Can't speak to charcuterie, but aged a prime rib for Christmas, and it worked extremely well. They are a good product.

I thought it worked great. I have attached some before and after photos (before trimming in the end). Because I got a late start, I only had 21 days to age it, which is the lowest you would go for prime rib. I received many comments on the tenderness and great texture. The flavor was very good, but you really need to go to 28 days minimum to get noticeable intensifying of flavor for prime rib. My next one I am going to go 45-60 days.

I am going to order the Charcuterie kit in the near future . I spoke to someone at the company and they were very helpful with some suggestions .

What size bag did you use for the prime rib? And how big was the roast?
