I'm starting to lean more an more to 60% beads. Even though I just bought 3lbs of 65% I think I might buy 1 1/2 lb of the 60% to achieve about 63% Rh ( + or - 2%). I could buy some of the clay beads. I really wish there was a way to tell the Rh of the cigar itself aside from just feeling it, mostly so I would know what the internal Rh of the cigar was. I am really beginning to learn that the more I know about cigars the more I dont know. I went on a recess from cigars for about 1 1/2 years and the whole time my coolidors were at a steady 65% Rh. I opened them at the most one time a month and would have sold everything if I was not so busy/lazy at the time. When I got off of sea duty and had time to smoke for first several months every cigar I smoked had a perfect burn up until I slid down the slope and bought a cabinet. Now I am wondering if I should not touch my smokes for a few months to let everything reach equilibrium.
