Vinotemp Humidity ?
I've used the search function but couldn't find anything that answered my question.This question is for the guys/gals that aim for 65%RH in their Vinotemps. I have 1 1/2 pounds of Heartfelt beads, 2 Oust fans, 4 drawers, and 1 shelf from Mtmouse inside. The problem is I have a reading of 63%RH at the top and 67% at the bottom. I've not added any new smoke lately(althought I'm waiting on the mailman). Anyone else have/had this problem, and if so how did you correct it. On a side note just salt tested all hyrgos, they are all calibarted, drain hole is plugged, and temp is at 68F. HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Vinotemp Humidity ?
Have you tried taking half a pound out, or drying them out?
Honestly, I don't pay that much attention to my humidity anymore. As long as it's not over 70 or under 60, I am fine. |

I dont see the problem. 63 and 67 rh with a +/- margin of error on each hygrometer of 2% puts you well within the acceptable parameters. I honestly do not understand the obsession with Rh. If you sticks are not moldy and they smoke good, then what is the problem??? It aint that big of a deal.

How long has it been since you started seasoning it. I have the same shelves and just use a glass of distilled water as my humidifier. It takes a week or two for those shelves and drawers to really get the moisture drawn into them. Mine sits at anywhere from 67 to 68 with just the glass at all times but it is in a very dry climate and the drain is not plugged.

Happy Holidays to you as well!
As they've said, I think your RH is fine. What is your target RH? |

Thanks for the reply's I guess I'm just being anal about the RH. Hear so much about my RH being rock steady at such and such. Oh what the heck!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS |

I hit 59% in one humi and almost panicked! Winter is drying out the whole house and we really don't have winter in Oklahoma. I feel for you guys in MN, ND, WI, MI, PA, MT, etc, where it is below zero and who knows if there is any humidity at all in the air! Mike |
