What temps have you cured salami? Don’t want to f it up.

When I’ve done it I leave it in the garage when temps are in the 30’s. That leaves the garage on average under 45 degrees. I let it hang till I notice the casing is loose.

I don’t know the temp range but my 65 degree basement would scare me.

WT salami turned out great. Took a smidge over a week to dry out. Will definitely experiment and do this again.

Looked through the big hatch freezer the other day I still have 185lb of pork set aside for sausage and 25lb of deer meat. Buddy is coming over Sunday and we're gonna try and knock out all the pork. Gonna do 25lb each of Rustic French onion, Greek gyro, and blue ribbon brauts, plus my buddy has some blueberry something seasoning. The other 100lb I'll just do breakfast sausage with.
