Thread: What cigar did you smoke today?

My first day off of my 3 day weekend. Waiting for my LA Shaving Soap Co package to come in the mail. So I'm going to light this up and browse SRP for a bit.

Always a good day when I can smoke one of these.

Hi fella's, what are you using to humidify your humidors? I am using a Puck in a small humi to good affect. I'm thinking of trying Boveda packs in another humi. Are they any good?

Boveda's are great - bit expensive - but great. I use Heartfelt beads. I really couldn't be happier, short of a system that would never need maintaining .

I use too many beads really, but I am a stable environment whore lol. I keep manually moistened beads on the bottom of my humi's - ie I only spritz the beads that I keep on the bottom of my humi. And beads up top. The beads up top soak up any excess as the humidity travels up. It helps over-saturating the beads too - which is a real pain.

Moreover, I keep my humis inside a chest whos bottom is lined with 8lbs of Exqusicat kitty litter lol. So the environment outside my humi's is slightly more humid than inside. It's a system I have sort of mastered. It works for me. But it's overkill lol.

I use Xikar gell jars and Xikar glycol liquid. It has done wonderfully for several years in my humidor. There are many good options, this is just my preferred way. I have no knowledge of Boveda, sorry I can't comment specifically to that.

Humidor is simply the integrated block filled with propylene glycol, distilled water mix

Hello bud,
I agree, i'm toying with getting a large 150 capacity humi. I was shocked when looking into the Boveda system, they recommend one 60g pack per 25 cigar capacity of your humi. That equates to 6 packs in a 150 stick humi...!
I'll look into the Heartfelt beads mate.

Thank's for your help guys.

Keeping at stable environment is an effn PITA where I am.

I think I'm going to take a page out of Earcutter's manual and put my humis in a closed case.
