From the outside at least, Dry aging beef, It’s just a cooling and drying process in a controlled environnement.
There are 2 main reasons for not using your own fridge :
1 . Temperature : opening and closing the door several times a day, make for the least stable temperature ever.
2 . Smell : Even if you do it right, DRY aging beef produce a specific smell, which doesn't smell bad but strong, which will permeate the rest of your food , and vice versa.

I laughed for a good few minutes when you realized your fridge looks like a bomb XD

[@FrenchGuyCooking]

I genuinely felt bad driving with that in my trunk

[@nicholaslandolina]

Kung Fu Phil That was funny

[@stonecat676]

I almost choked on my broccoli. That was comedy gold.

[@johntheodoreyap4800]

"I'm sure this is not stupid, but I'm not entirely sure this is genius." My new favorite life quote.

[@austingulotta9817]

Alex, I hope you see this. I work in the food service industry and find myself stressed out when I can't do as well as I'd like. But your upbeat attitude about food helps me through my work days all the time. I can't thank you enough for existing!

[@jassisangha3395]

A home made wine or beer series would be fun.

[@99Nars]

Jassi Sangha he is aging wine right now and planning to make a video about it!!

[@FrenchGuyCooking]

A series, even :)

[@diyhomebrewguy4586]

I was just thinking this looked like a failed attempt of a lagering chamber I made. The styrofoam box is now used to set my kettle in to hold mash temps.

[@CinemaDoll137]

I love that you still hold onto your engineering roots. The creativity from both cooking and engineering work so well. Keep up the amazing work!

[@nzungu7773]

Hillary Dunkley you're so pretty

[@chrisp5526]

“It is clean... as soon as I clean it”... everyone is with you!

blows my mind how you don't get more views! great at editing your videos, perfect cooking cooking videos and tips. Plus your a Frenchman!

[@dynamo19922007]

Yes! I've been waiting for this series to continue! Thank you Alex 🙌🏽☺

[@tracyyim]

this guy is amazing. clever and crafty

[@sleepyjo9340]

[@magnusbiongnordin3529]

Simply amazing! Looking forward to see the results!!

[@amandaappels8371]

Your fridge looking like a bomb reminded me of a pretty funny story. So I'm an engineering student and one of our first projects was to make a mock charger for your phone powered by human energy. A lot of people went with magnets inside a small PVC pipe with copper wire coiled around it. The next semester, someone threw out the no longer needed project and after a garbage man saw it, the cops were called because it looked like a pipe bomb. Tons of cops, bomb squads, and one super cool bomb disposal robot later, an email was sent out to the class remind us to properly dispose of projects that may be mistaken for bombs and cause panic throughout the university 😂

[@colinjennings2548]

Haha my dad and were doing a science fair project, and we needed a sealed, high pressure environment for the thing to work. So we used a pressure cooker and a makeshift lid hooked up to a compressor. We had some sensors inside, so to keep track of everything we drew some schematics on the side with a sharpie. Later our weird neighbor we knew for like a month needed to borrow it, and we forgot to wipe the sharpie off. So OF COURSE he thought it was a bomb, and like 20 minutes later the police show up at our house with their guns out while we nervously explained our situation 😆.

[@WUSZNN]

Colin Jennings jesus thats crazy hahaha

[@krisb3429]

Who gives a fcuk.

[@ADHD-Gaming]

You've got a good sense of humor, great timing, and good content. Subscribed.

[@rishabhsinha4765]

NASA t shirt in some videos, resourceful in making things, draws perfect diagrams, knows about electrolysis and applies it and other science... you must be a fellow engineer!

[@rishabhsinha4765]

NoOneKnows Oh did he do a Q and A? New subscriber, barely scratching the surface of his channel

[@stonecat676]

Just one look at his "kitchen studio" and you can tell he done some engineerin'

[@jeffward1106]

You are brilliant! Build a time machine!! I have full confidence you can do it.

[@FrenchGuyCooking]

+Jeff Ward In many aspects, it actually is the closest to a Food Time Machine

[@stirlingfromla]

I though you forgot about telling us! I picked up my entire rib yesterday. Aged 45 days, and today i cooked my first steak. The most tender steak I have ever eaten. After this rack is gone, I think I will age the next one to 55 days.

[@cognitivedissonance7422]

what an utter madman! Brilliant and so creative! All my respect :)

[@brian1395]

I love your humor. well done. Your bringing French life to the world, i like it.

[@Whiskypapa]

Been waiting for this! Thanks for the upload Alex!

[@Phoenix_flying]

Love your humor! Thank you for the wonderful, creative information.

[@madaodoge5697]

I learned more on DIY than dry aging beef You are super creative!

[@jackharrison1478]

I love this channel! Amazing content with delicious foods! I’m obsessed, thank you Alex! 😄

[@vahapzengin7741]

Absolutely the most clever DIY aged beef technique I've ever seen!!! Hope you're gonna make it. Good luck 😄

[@louisthomas8550]

Love your films! I may never try to dry age beef in my home, but it's fascinating to see how it can be done.

[@sonic763]

This is great. I can't wait to see the results. Looking forward to the next video!

[@batistajericho4281]

You really are something else Alex, love the video

[@etherdog]

Alex, this is crazy...genius. Great fun to watch your mad mind at work. Loved the vid with Katie Quinn--I subscribed to her, too. I just do physics/science and food and right now you are at the intersection. Salut, beurre!

[@sicurr1]

Dude, I've subscribed just to see how this turns out, but now that I see your other videos, I'm happy I've subscribed.

[@yols5]

Engineering design and food, what a fun episode :D . Super excited to see the results!

[@adamadams6740]

Thanks man can’t wait to try this just got a half side of beef from a co-op I’m in (half a butcher prepared cow)and have a spare fridge in my garage! Thanks so much for the info!!!!👍🏿👍🏿

[@ThisIsMyFullName]

This is a really cool project Alex, looking forward to seeing how far it goes!

[@bfyguy]

This looks genius and mega convenient for beef jerky, 10/10 would buy for home use

[@OverlordShanbo]

Love it Alex. I love that you DO things and don't just talk about them.

[@Majima897]

Oh my goodness!!! Finally! Thank you for this lesson; highly appreciated!

[@bigpapi3636]

Very inventive. Can't wait to see the results.

[@dorianfoley6047]

This is absolutely fantastic. I'd definitely watch quick "check-in" videos to let us know how the bomb (not a bomb) is working: holding temperature and humidity and whatnot before the big reveal on day 45...just sayin' Chapeau!

[@Thialas]

the way he says "I don't know why there would be any problem" is honestly, like, i don't even know where to begin, the sound of his voice and the way he looked. Priceless xD

[@BlackNeoLP]

I absolutely love your videos. I did try your sous-vide trick and it was amazing :D Looking forward to try dry-aging my own beef, but I still have to get a second fridge.

[@hepianesti5451]

Can't wait to see how it turns out. Good luck, Alex.

[@jessbutterfly9801]

This was out of this world fun to watch.

[@TikiTim]

Dude this is amazing!! Love the mad inventor vibe and heavy orange marker pen use 👍 big skills combo action right there 😉

[@JayNewberyy]

This video and whole concept is enthralling. bravo.

[@WinStunSmith]

“High tech” sealing mechanism. LOL...LOVE IT! Great channel. Very informative and fun. Subscribed immediately.

[@robertp457]

Alex, you are the best! Next time I visit France I want to meet you and learn about French food and the best places to get it!

[@maxgarcia8894]

I like your filming techniques!! Reminds me of casey neystat and im glad theres someone else that is making videos like him! You're my new favorite vlogger for sure! Keep it up and btw great ramen addiction series im actually eating some right now thanks to your videos!

[@tvoth33]

Very inventive and funny. I think you could have your own daytime show on television. Great job.

[@TheStallion234]

Dude, that was awesome. I love the creativity in making that Styrofoam aging box. Well done man!

[@JessicaPradoHanson]

OMG this is such an amazing idea!!! I am looking forward to seeing how this turns out and I might try it!!! Aged beef is sooooooo delicious ❤️ I hope you are having a beautiful day filled with smiles! 😀

[@MurcuryEntertainment]

Man... the intersection of food and engineering is my favourite.

[@jaseth1337]

You really are something else. High level food nerd on a budget! I love it. I can't wait to see the result. If it's as amazingly successful as the sous vide beer cooler, that will make one more way you have improved my life :)

[@davem1212]

Love it and laughed a few times. You are inventive and brilliant

[@samaker4]

Thanks Alex, I'm enjoying your channel immensely. I like your Tom Sachs styling

[@transamgirl4443]

Nice build....very nice. Thank you this is extremely doable.

[@mtlamont]

Great channel. Love your ingenuity.

[@burrochapadogrl]

i dont say this often...but i think i have a crush. this is the first video i ever watched...his accent, curly hair, and his creative cleverness=crush.

This is brilliant, you deserve alot more views man. Subbed

[@wesingtogether]

i love your sense of humor

[@FlazooMedia]

One episode and I'm subscribed. Can't wait to more!

[@mikeperth8027]

Great video, loved it!

[@allicancan]

Wow, so impressive Alex! I can''t wait to see how it turns out - I have faith in your invention. I've also been enjoying you and your channel very much. I love your attitude towards cooking, your joie de vivre and the music you choose for your episodes - what's not to like?! Bonne chance! :D

[@antoneapeterson5391]

I have been dry aging my rib eye roasts for years in my main refrigerator. As soon as I get it home, it goes on a rack and dries until ready for herb/oil application and roasting. Granted, it is usually only around 5 days or so, but what a difference those few days make. I've never had a problem with residual smell or taste, but have never made it to 45 days either. I like your creation and may have to give it a try. Once you've tasted dry aged beef, it's hard to go back.

[@AscensionNCS]

Seriously good video man, looking forward to seeing some more!

[@qton._7578]

New favourite channel, Keep up the great work mate. :D

[@koruki]

A built one a while back and added a few bags of activated charcoal too when all the instructions don’t mention it. Glad I wasn’t wrong about it

[@toms.3977]

Great varied content. Very entertaining.

[@brainbug9000]

Pretty entertaining, Definitely fun to watch! Keep it up and you will have tons of subscribers in no time!

[@mikekuppen6256]

[@summitchase]

Very nice design! I can't wait for the follow-up :)

[@n07shichi]

Can't wait to see the result!

[@maddiemay5751]

this was fun to watch! :)

[@Kihidokid]

i love the color theme your channel settled on

[@ararj]

subscribed. this is awesome. cheers from Edmonton Canada

[@strongfp]

I use one of my veggie crisper's on the bottom of my fridge for aging beef. Clean it out nicely, throw some duct tape around the cracks, place a cookie cooling rack of a clean cookie tray, dump a bunch of sea salt on the cookie tray and place my beef on the rack. Keep a thermometer sticking out of the drawer, and let it sit for roughly 10 - 15 days. Never failed me.

[@alexistragoudas]

So innovating and absolutely amazing , nice job !!!

[@TheDarwiniser]

Excellent topic, great advice.
