  • 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.

Help picking humidification

Yep. We're on the same page here. Just too many guys automatically season it before seeing "where it's at" before starting. And yeah, wiping down those units is a no-no. The micro-thin veneer of cedar can split and the adhesive breeds mold.
I have two 4oz HCF bead "cans" and a random bag of Bodeva on a tray or two.

Anybody from the old P\/ff days has got to remember all the threads about those desktops. Just a couple things to do correctly, right out of the gate, and everything's fine.
I had a real good run of my CI desktop humidors before I passed them down and moved to Winador.

My old desk top units were pretty good but I remember always maintaining (fighting) them. Now I rarely ever have to add water to the beads in my wino and it holds right around 62% and 66F

Crazy, but my humidor was 75% plus when I first broke it out. I put several full 69% bovedas and the HF beads in there for a few days and it was way high. I took out several of the bovedas just have two small ones and the HF tube and filled it up with about 25 cigars and now it's sitting nicely at 68%

Yeah. It won't take much in there. I like to keep my smokes under 70%RH as well. Nice job !
