Thoughts on reducing temp and humidity in this dry tent?

I dry my bud in one of these HerbDryers that has an extractor fan. Because the surrounding air is still at 27 degrees celsius and RH at 67%, those values are the same inside the HerbDryer. Any thoughts on how I might reduce the temp and RH inexpensively?

I would try using a dehumidifier of some sort. Your kind of pushing it with the RH since the ideal humidity to dry cannabis is 50-60%. Any lower and the plants will probably dry too quickly, while if it’s higher, problems with fungi can arise and the drying process can also take forever.

@Mr_Weeds_Autos, Considering the RH my last dry went okay, I think the fan pulling air through means it's not stagnant - not sure though. I'm a bit more concerned with the temperature, I read somewhere that drying above 25c will degrade the terpenes. Do you know anything about that?
