For too long, I've been adhering to the 70/70 'rule' for my humidors. From the owner at my favorite B&M to general knowledge obtained from fellow BOTL, this seemed the way to go. However, since joining PUFF, you all have opened my eyes to the joys of lower RH. Following your advice, I pulled...

Can a wine cooler like mine hold Rh for a while after you remove the KL from the unit? I noticed when I removed 2 of the small bags nothing changed.... and a week ago the Rh bumped up to about 67% so I took another bag out (only one left) and it was still at 66% ... so I took the last bag out...

I have these humidifier beads but i have no idea how much to use. I see a lot of things saying i should use 1.5 oz for 65% RH. But im not sure exactly how much to use on my coolerdor or what the proper formula is. 1LB Cigar Humidor Humidifier Humidity Beads | eBay

Hey guys, I know when you break it down it basically comes down to personal preference but I was just wondering exactly how much of a difference storing cigars at 65% are than to 70% RH? Also, even smaller, what about 68% RH compared to 65% or 70%. Is there really THAT much of a difference? Let...

Prior to last week I had been using the gel jars in my humidor which are supposed to keep 70% humidity. They didn't seem to work very well though, I had to supplement them with one of the green foam humidifiers to keep the humidity up. So last week I got sick or worrying about the humidity and...

It took me about a week, but I managed to get my humidor @65%. Combination of spreading my beads about - and some intuition but I got her there!:dude:

If I put a tube of this in a tupperware container/ziplock bag (a tube that is rated on the site for 1080) with my Rectanguilar Xikar Hygro, will it calibrate to 65% correctly?

OK, colour me confused here. I bought a 1 pound bag of 60% RH Heartfelt beads, put 'em in two mesh bags and hydrated about 50% of each bag roughly a month ago. Since the day I got them my coolerdor has been rock-steady at 65%. I've tried everything and I just can't get the RH down. I removed...

Just wondering if 65% humidity is the best in all situations. I have a wooden humidor and the heartfelt 65% beads. It hold 65% without fail!! Go Heartfelt!! My question/problem is some of the CAPS on my cigars seem dry. The actual cigar body seems ok but the caps are crackly. Maybe its the...

What do you guys think of my idea to replace the green foam in my Hydra SM with 70% RH silica gel and then put one pound of 65% RH beads in my medium sized cabinet humidor (2 cubic feet with 4 shelves)? I will place 4-6 oz of beads on each of the upper 3 shelves of the humidor. I will place...

Going to be seasoning a 300 ct. humidor this weekend and wanted to know which Hf beads are best. I have read that for "storage" 65% is optimal, but for "aging" 70% is where it's at. I don't intentionally age cigars, it just happens sometimes I guess. Does area temp. fluctuation have...

I'm going to order some Heartfelt beads but don't know exactly what I need. Should I buy one of the medium sized 65% tubes? Is that sufficient for a 100 count humidor? And, where should I place it? Can it be touching cigars or should it be cordoned off into its own area? Also, I'm looking...

So I have this really nice humi made by Prometheus and it has the funny humidification device that keeps it at 70% RH. That's the humi dedicated for resting/aging my CCs. Now everyone here says I should SMOKE the CCs at lower RH levels. But is storing them at ~70% RH O.K. ???

i finally got myself some heartfelt beads..65%..but my hygrometer is reporting 61% max. is it possible heartfelt sent me 60% and mislabeled it 65%? my seal is good so its not that and im def using enough

I pulled a HdM Dark Knight out of my humi, which is reading 65%, and it was way overhumidified. I just salt tested and found that my hygro is accurate. I thought it would be fine based on reading from hygro(which has been steady for a long time), but it tunneled, draw was impossible and was...

I need a pound out two of the heartfelt beads. If anyone has some that they wanna get rid of at a cost lower than the heartfelt web site send me a PM.

I just changed my 50ct humi over to a blue heartfelt tube that is supposed to hold the humi at 65%. I did as instructed and did not add any water because I wanted to bring the humidity down in the humi. The cheap foam puck that I was using was keeping the humi at 72-74%, but the lowest I can get...

For sale: Heartfelt 65% Humidity Beads and Xikar Adjustable Digital Hygrometer Both are about 6 months old and work great. Beads were purchased from Heartfelt ~6 months ago and they maintain humidity perfectly, but I no longer need them. Hygrometer is exactly like the one in the attached...

Ok I've had my humidor set up for a little over a week. I seasoned it (once with a some what damp sponge, which sat in it over night on a plastic bag), then again(with just taking the damp sponge and rubbing it down). I can't seem to get it above 65% humidity though. I put a jar of Xikar crystal...
