BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I was woundering that too. The smart ass in me wounders if he keeps his cigars in a vaccuum to avoid RH. Little clarity please, I'm lost on this as well. -

Myth Busters Relative Humidity
First Post updated. Cigars seem to be stabalized at 93 degrees and 68 RH. I'm thinking about changing up the second part of the test with the Oasis. I think I'm going to put one in that is about half full, but not turn it on for the first couple of days. I'm woundering how well the Oasis does... -
Myth Busters Relative Humidity
Do you think the temp drop could be making your seal not as good, or making the air outside the humidor drier from heating? -
High humidification question....!
More than anything else, I go by how the cigars feel and how tight the bands are on the cigars. I like the bands just a bit loose so they can spin without much effort, but don't try to slide up and down. That is a good measure of how swollen your cigars are from moisture compaired to when they... -

Myth Busters Relative Humidity
First Post updated, not much to report, cigars are aboout back to starting point in weight and feel, but at 94 degrees. -
High humidification question....!
I'm doing some experimenting, watch the Myth Buster thread if you want to follow along, but I'm starting to thing that beads have a huge advantage over forced humidification that can not take moisture back out of the air. For now, you might want to put a tub of "Damp-Rid" in there to bring... -
High humidification question....!
What happened with the temperature? If the temperature went up even short term, that would cause the water to go to the air. If the temperature then dropped back down, the moisture would have nowhere to go except the cigars and cedar. -

First post updated, they are equalizing to the temp RH now. I'll give them a few more days before I make any judgements. -
Myth Busters Relative Humidity
My guess is that I had the box off heat for too long messing with it and it cooled down to room temperature causing the condensation. it's been on ever since and seems to be doing fine. -

OK, ran into the first snag. But in the bag of beads yesterday and found condensaion on the inside of the container this morning with RH of 74 and temp of 94. I wiped up about a table spoon of water and will keep checking. One cigar's wraper got a little wet from where it was sitting. -
Myth Busters Relative Humidity
I think that is true if only air is present, but I've also found writings (over the top as well) that talk of rate of saturation or absorbtion coeficients. I think the point being that diffirent materials seek out a diffirent equalibrium. Should this be simpler? -
How do you light your cigar?
I light and blow. I think the puff pulls the cherry to the center of the cigar mostly, but if you blow on the end, it flattens the cherry to the center and edges. IMO. -
Myth Busters Relative Humidity
I've already gotten my eyes opened up at day one. In a air and water tight sealed plastic container, cigars can dry out, just from a temperature change, when it gets warmer. The amount of moisture in the container had to stay constant, but the cigars dried out as humidity went into the air. So... -

I think there was an actual Myth Busters episode on the Vadka and it was busted, not as good.
