Hello ! I'm very new to the cigar world, and after buying some and storing them inside plastic bags with Boveda 70%, I've decided to buy a Humidor (Adorini Chianti Deluxe). One of the problem I had (which might be important for what comes next) is that I fear I might have received some old...

I have 4 70 % boveda packs in my 75 capacity humidor which the company says is enough to keep it at 70% exactly. However, It doesn't I have added 2 small sponges and a tube with gel beads in it but the humidity keeps going down. I thought my humidor had a good seal... I did the woosh test but...

Hello, recently I've purchased two batches of Heartfelt beads calibrated on RH 70% and with both I had the same problem. After I got the beads, I put them into a tupperware with a small bowl of distilled water next to them and left it for a three days to rehydrate. After most of them (not all)...

I seem to be having some hygrometer issues. When I purchased these two humidors (100 ct & 50 ct.) I checked them for leaks, improved the seal of the lid (which was already pretty good) using some freezer tape, improved the seal of the front mount hygrometer using rubber sealing tape, and...

I threw up the thread about my humidification device, but I think the problem might actually come down to my bungling of the seasoning process. I did the dw soaked sponge in the tray with my humidification device method. However, I left it there too long. I was told that it would be a couple...

Hi! I'm having a problem with my year old Maxijet and before I send it in for repair, I was hoping someone had some advice on how to resolve it. When I go to use the lighter, I have to click it 10-15 times to get it to light. There is spark, but no fuel hiss right off the bat. If I hold down...

So, I recently received and used my Ronson Jet-Lite for the first time. All was going fine and dandy until I took my thumb off the switch to put the lighter out. It didn't go out. It just kept hissing after I closed the lid. I then opened it and clicked it again to prevent butane build...

A few weeks ago I changed to Heartfelt beads and from that moment on my problems began...tunneling, channeling until the then darn things just wouldn't burn. Hygrometer says a perfect 65 RH. I'm like what the hey is going on. The cigars are soft as naugahyde in a car seat seat. Well if there...

I have a HYDRA-LG Commercial Series Electronic Humidifier, in my humidor. I also have enough beads to keep it humidified without the Hydra, just encase of a power failure, or whatever. I have however on 5 separate occasions found the Hydra-LG to have been turned off. While the Fans coming out...

So I ordered a handful of Natural by Drew Estate Dirt Torpedos early last week. I 'won' them on a name your price sale from a well known online retailer. They arrived last week well packaged in bubble wrap and in a box. I put them straight in the humi and left them alone until today. When I...

calling all our pro mechanics and do it yourselfers.. I have a unusual problem with a 2000 cadillac deville we are trying to keep running and not buy a new car. the windshield wipers have recently decided to have a mind of their own. It started when they would run a few swipes across...

So I've got my winodor with beads, and last week, I rearranged my stock inside because its absolutely stuffed. Well I didn't notice until the next day that the door wasnt shut all the way and humidity had dropped to 45%!!! Well I fixed that, just took moving a box from interfering with the seal...

Hi guys! I'm a long time lurker here, but decided to ask you guys for help. Yes, I've done searches and read different ways to solve the condensation issues, but I can't fix it! It gets up into the 90s F here during the day, so mid 80s F in my apartment and quite humid. What happens is...

First of all Niceashcigars.com and cigarsatyourprice.com are both ran from the same people. I first heard of cigarsatyourprice.com from someone who works for them who posted on here about the new website, and how it works. I was impressed, and loved the good prices. But I finally decided to...

Hey guys i have a Dr.Grabow grand duke that has been having cake problems. The cake seemed very uneven and when i was emptying my pipe the other day i noticed a sizeable chunk fell off the middle of the bowl. It felt very brittle and it was thing on the bottom and top and thick in the middle. So...

I have a new found smoking disorder and have yet to see a name for it, so I will describe it and hopefully find others who share my plight. I would best describe it as Pipe Smokers Anxiety. I'm a new pipe smoker and I have now aquired a cool collection of 10 pipes ranging in all...

I pulled out a 5 Vegas Triple A for my evening smoke and lit it as usual. Less than 1/3 of the way in I noticed that only one side of my cigar was staying lit, the other was out. No matter what I tried, from rotating as I puffed to re lights, it wouldnt stay lit. I even let it go out, cut it and...

I have a 28 bottle vino temp that I can't get the RH up. I've increased the amount of KL to about 2 pounds now and have soaked it completely trying to get the RH up. It gets to around 60% RH over night and then drops to 53% during the day. No mater what I do or where I measure the RH it is low...

So I have a young cousin, she just turned 21, who I am really not close to or friendly with in anyway. Most of this stems from her mother (my aunt) who is the biggest bitch on the planet and who has done more bad things to my immediate family and stabbed me in the back more times than I can...
