Cigar Shop Humidors
 
Two good cigar shops in town have their walk-in humidors humidified with what look like two run of the mill large room humidifiers cranked up all the way. How can this method be precise to any acceptable degree? Their cigars are really good, so it works, but I don't see how.

Thats why when you buy cigars they are often over humidified. Best to take them home and let them rest for a few weeks.

It's really rather simple, a humidifier is a humidifier whether it's a home unit for industrial unit. Unless it's a very large humidor, that's probably all they need.

And the reason most b&m's keep their walk-ins wetter than most of us here at the Asylum, is to compensate for the door to the room opening all day long.

I agree that they leave them a little wetter due to the traffic. Cigars come back fairly easily from being too wet, but, reviving them when dry is another story.

Very true because once the oils in a cigar are gone, they are gone for good.
