Cigar Asylum Cigar Forum - View Single Post - heartfelt beads and hygrometer calibration

timatraw · 01-24-2010, 07:51 AM

Im having a heck of a time getting an accurate calibration reading for my stinking hygrometers. Is it possible to use a cap full of 65% beads (half wet with distilled water) in a tupperware with the hygrometers and get an accurate reading? I am guessing that the RH should be 65% after 24 hours or so.
Will this work?
Has anyone tried this calibration method with success?
Thanks.
Tim
