    Welcome aboard! You should probably stay away from cigar "passes", hate for them to get intercepted and end up in the wrong place :banghead:

    Think of getting this, NewAir - 250-Cigar Thermoelectric Humidor, BB Deal of the day

    So the humidor arrived yesterday which considering it shipped from Best Buy (who still hasn't shipped my pre-ordered game that was released the 17th) that's fairly decent shipping. The humidor is packed very well from the manufacturer. There was styrofoam padding on the top and bottom and nice...

    Think of getting this, NewAir - 250-Cigar Thermoelectric Humidor, BB Deal of the day

    I have a highly rated digital hydrometer in my current humidor that I will probably just move over. It has a temp reading as well so I can double-check the built in temp gauge. 250 is plenty for me. I get to smoke a cigar about once a week so I typically buy high end 5 packs. There's maybe...

    Think of getting this, NewAir - 250-Cigar Thermoelectric Humidor, BB Deal of the day

    Best Buy's deal of the day, strangely enough, is the NewAir 250 cigar thermoelectric humidor. It's only $189.99 with free shipping today. I have a BB credit card so I could get it interest free for 6 months and semi-hide the real cost from my wife. I can't find much info about this humidor...

    Clash of Clans

    Ah, well I'm not very familiar with the PvP side of the game, I've just been building and defending mainly. Call me weird, but I really like playing defense. Nothing better than logging in and seeing 4 or 5 attacks repelled and lots of trophies :) Against higher levels though I was thinking...

    getting into beer

    How I started into craft beers many, many, years ago was I found an Old Chicago and decided to complete a tour. It took me over a year I think but 110 beers later and I had tried most of your major styles and brands. Best part is you win free stuff for drinking beer :)

    Hard Cider Yeast

    I agree with everyone here. Dry cider is easyville. I go with EdWort's advise and also use champagne yeast. It's the sweet cider that's difficult. With the sweet stuff you have to kill the yeast at a certain taste and then use a keg/bottling wand if you ever want to bottle.

    What do you do and what else do you do?

    I'm a computer geek that supervises other computer geeks. Hobby wise I have a fairly expansive home-brewery going on and I also build tiny custom gaming computers. I've already made contact with the other homebrewers on here :bottle:
