I dont mind waiting but i just smoked one of my noir champagne cigars and bluckkk! it was so harsh, i might as well smoke the cigar with a lighter at the head the whole duration.

Where are the beads supposed to sit at in the humidor?
all the way on the bottom? off to the side? or on top of some cigars
I keep my beads in the bottom of my humidor, never had any issues. What kind of humidor do you have? Have you properly seasoned it and calibrated your hygrometer following the directions in the stickies?

Nevermind, saw your other thread. Honestly, you probably have a leak in the glasstop humidor and you're going to struggle with low humidity because of that.
