    Heartfelt Beads, Frequently Asked Questions

    I have a 48qt coolerdor that has 5 various sized cedar boxes in it and maybe 40 singles. I salt-tested my hygro and it turns out my coolerdor has been running at 73% in the past. I bought a pound of the 65% heartfelt beads, and half of them have been sitting in the coolerdor for a few...

    Tested the hygro and things are worse than what they first seemed. My hygro was reading 71-72% using the salt test. That means it's actually 73-74% RH with my 65% RH beads.

    Heartfelt Beads, Frequently Asked Questions

    Have had a bag of 65% beads in the coolerdor for several days and they're holding the humidity rock steady. Unfortunately, they're holding it at 70% on the dot. What gives? They're definitely not over-saturated. Also, had a ton of dust and not-spheres in my bag. Should the beads be cleaned...

    Today's Smoke(s) 11/6/08

    Smoked a handful of cigars on the golf course today: JR Connie - meh. Was expecting better. Trinidad cigarillo - Rolled way tight. Forgot it on a tee box and didn't care to retrieve it. Sancho Panza - box-pressed maduro. Not bad, but not great. Romeo y Julieta 1875 - Might have been smoked out...

    Dwindling Stash - Anything good here?

    Thanks guys. I'll definitely be smoking (and discarding) some of them soon. Just wanted to see if there were any that might be a step above casual golf smokes.

    Dwindling Stash - Anything good here?

    Also have two bundles of Consuegras from JR. A natural corona and a maduro robusto that's looking looking pretty damn sparkly. The corona was meh, but the robusto was tasty if I remember correctly. Going to have to try one of those out tomorrow to jog the memory. :scratchhe Any help is...
