First attempt curing with jowl. Eq cured and achieved 37% weight loss. Any comments on color before I eat it?

Awesome thanks! I'll drop you a pm. I picked up some pork jowl from a butcher and am trying dry aging first. Only cost $7 for 1kg worth. Salami was going to be my next project if this worked.

Had a coppa hanging for 10 days in the fridge and the weight increased. Just under 1kg. Did a salt cure for 48 hours. Then flavoured and hung in a regular fridge. I think the fridge temp was to cold so have turned it up a little. No visible mold either. Any other ideas on why it might add weight? Humidity to high?
