    I bought a 12 Pack of 72% Boveda® humidification packs (which is 4x as much as my humidor needs) With these being as accurate as they are do I still need a Cigar Butler (which is a blue tooth hygrometer that sends readings to your phone so you don't have to open the lid to get a reading. I'm a...

    I hate smartphones so I don't have one but my desktop is right next to the humidor... will that suffice?

    Hey fams, it's been almost two years since I posted here. I lost my password sometime ago, and my last computer crapped out in 2018 and I lost everything on it, so I didn't come back until just last night. I have 17 cigars in my Sistema 7-liter Tupperdore, but over the past year, maybe year...

    Hi folks. My father is a cigar smoker, and he's got, by his estimation, 75 cigars in two old humidors that are dried out. He's got some pretty high-end sticks in there; everything from Cubans to Ashtons. His hygrometers are all long dead, and all he's ever had to keep the RH in were those...

    Well, there sure is a lot to learn in this hobby, so first and foremost, thank you for all the content here. A quick rundown so far: [Edit: posted a link to my intro post, but am one post shy of being allowed to post links. See the intro post titled "A new occasional smoker from Canada. "...

    Hey folks. Sorry it's been a while, I've been off posting on other forums. Today I went to my B&M for two new Boveda packs for my tupperdore (7L KlipIt). The two packs I have in there are done. Question is, should I put both in there, or just one? Or start with one and see where the RH is...

    So I have been using 69% Boveda Packs for my humidor for about 6 months now, and things have been going ok. The humidity was never 69% (especially in the dead of winter) but it usually hovered around 65%-67% which was ok with me. However I got lazy and did not noticed that my packs had dried up...

    I have a larger Tupperdor which I installed with a four-slot Boveda spanish cedar holder. Boveda Wood Packet Holders | Boveda® Official Site | Find Boveda Here! I'm having a terrible time getting the adhesive to hold the metal strip to the top of the lid. I tried the adhesive strip that comes...

    Hey guys! Been lurking for a bit before I decided to join up, especially after making the jump to my first humidor like I did today! Just recently moved to Utah from Michigan and got to check out the local shop and made my jump of buying a few local sticks with said humidor. As a golfer through...

    I'm building a Tupperdore today, and only two places in my area have Boveda Humidity packs. The first place closest to me has three 72% packs, but that's a little high for me. I'm waiting until the other place 7 miles away opens at 11 to call them and ask them if they have any in stock. I...

    I just reseasoned my humidors but they are still leaking even though I am using extra boveda packs at a higher RH % than needed. I don't want to buy new ones at this point and I think weather stripping would make it worse. is there anything I can do? like spraying the bottom of the humidor with...

    Does anyone have this? Will it fit inside a 50 stick desktop humidor? :ranger:
  13. General Cigar Discussion
    My humidors have been seasoned for years now, however, information on the boveda humidipak's site says that 60% or less needs an 84% seasoning packet. I just set up an auto-shipment system with the boveda people so they will send me 3 65% humidipaks for my 75 cigar humidor and 2 for my 25 cigar...

    I just ran the salt test in a well-sealed jar with my Caliber IV digital. After 18 hours, the reading was a steady 77%. According to the Caliber IV's instructions, however, the Boveda calibration kit is the only proper test method; they insist that the salt method is unreliable (I don't know...

    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...

    On December 23 I bought Rocky Patel's "Best of the Best" sampler. Without thinking about it I tossed the Boveda 69 packet that was enclosed to the side. I was just cleaning off a shelf and found it. It's a little hard so I just tossed it in my cooler, thinking maybe it will help keep a steady...
  17. Cigar Accessory Questions
    I am new to cigars within the last couple of months and my wife bought me a 25 count humidor and some cigars for my birthday. I researched and found out how to season my humidifier, got it working correctly and keep it around 69% using Boveda Humidipaks. My question now is, I currently don't...

    Dear All I am so new to Cigar & Smoking it. I just got 1 box of Padron 2000 & another box of Padron 6000. I cant afford to buy a new expensive wood humidor, so I followed some of the internet tips buy storing them in a plastic container with a wet sponge. I have few questions which I cant...

    After failing multiple times with the salt test, I am trying this. They do not sell humidipack at my shop, however they have the boveda packs. So, my digital hygroset hygrometer has no calibrate button, instead an adjustable knob. What I am doing is throwing 2 69% bags in a tupperwear, remove...

    So, I would like to start a pif or pass whichever is appropriate w/ a brand new boveda calibration packet. I will not open it simply date it when I receive and put in the mail. I would like to see how many hygros we can calibrate w/ one packet before it expires. Guess it will be a running list...
