    You will find all kinds of good dry aging material if you type in JustineCaseyFeldown aka Stike on this forum.

    Google:

    Egghead forum Stike Dry Aging 

    (You should get tons of good info)

    Try the search function on the forum.  There are several archived threads on the subject that will answer any questions you may have.  You can also use google and add egghead forum to your query.  FWIW-

    Thanks, WeberWho, I'll do a search here for JustineCaseyFeldown
    (BTW I did try the search function on the forum, but got a lot of great pic's of Dry Aged Beef, but no how-to's)

    Edit: WeberWho, I just found your write-up: http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1161564/dry-age-write-up

    Step 1: Open fridge insert meat*
    Step 2: 40 days later open fridge remove meat
    Step 3: Cook and eat meat. 

    *meat being beef. Dry aged chicken may not be so good. 

    Thats about how hard it seems to be based on my research here. This has been asked many, many times so brace yourself for some frustrated answers or just limited answers. 

    And for goodness sake, don't ask about trimming. Trust me. Just don't. (Ask or trim).

    The hardest thing is to just let the meat sit in the fridge.  I am on day 21.

    Kenji at SeriousEats has a nice write-up on dry aging using a mini fridge with a fan put in to circulate air.

    I have a second fridge in the basement(beer fridge, basically) that I put mine in on a rack. Don't do anything else, otherwise.
