Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time 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.
Bury it in the ground. Lmao. You know I don't know if this will work, but I've thought about it. Buy a few of those little blue ice packs that you put in a lunch box. Freeze em up put it in a zip lock and put it in. May take up space but one should cool the whole thing down pretty well. Keep a extra one freezing so that every day you switch it out and have a fresh one. The zip lock prevents moisture leaking which it shouldn't anyways. Idk food for thought.
There's no basements in Cali. haha
Yeah that's a bit pricey, might as well go with a true wineador then. I found one on craigslist for about $300 ready to go. Need to save my chips for that.Cool idea, but pricey. Might warrant the wine ador!
That was actually going to be my next question, can you use those freeze packs and would that get too cold? How cold is too cold? This mini wineador was going above my beer fridge in the garage and I have plenty of those so it would be easy to do. I don't have a lot of inventory so space really isn't an issue right now.
Isn't this one of the worst things you can do as far as your seasoning and humidity is concerned? I have read more than once that you should never try and cool a humidor with anything frozen because it will draw out all of your humidity and turn it into condensate on whatever you froze.
If the cooler remains sealed, the net effect would be that the Rh inside the cooler doesn't change. However (and I am no thermal & hydro dynamics specialist although I do hope to play on on TV sometime), as the freezer pack thaws, it would draw humidity from the air around it and, consequently, from the cigars, causing condensation on the pack and drier air. But as the condensation evaporates, the humidity would be returned to the air and (eventually) be reintroduced into the cigars.
Stop...lol
No, because no matter what they find, they're going to blow up the humidor at the end.
I want one just like this. This is my inspiration. Thank you for posting it.Thanks to the brothers here helping me get my first coolidor around so I guess I will start the thread
Coleman 150 quart Xtreme Cooler walmart $70
4ft Closet shelving from walmart $14
ExquisiCat Crystals $12 petsmart
After a good cleaning I cut my shelving down 1-4ft peace made 3 perfect shelves
Need to go to my local B&M and get some more empty box's to help the seasoning process but im scared everytime I go there I spend spend spend lol
Looking good Brother, I finally got my oust fan's in the mail the other day and have to also added them to mineHere is mine from a few days ago. When I snapped this, I had yet to put my KL in yet. I did that yesterday and am now waiting for the Rh to come up to my desired reading. As of this morning it was at 57%. Once it hits 63-64% I'll move my sticks over
Two things different from Kloned: I added the battery powered fan and I put my shelves in upside down so there there is a lip to stop anything from sliding out.
