Edgestar 28 Humidifcation problem

[MortonMilo]

I've had an edgestar for a few months now and have a recurring humidification problem. I currently use 3 lbs of heartfelt 65% beads, but constantly find the humidity closer to 55%. There is constantly water dripping down the back on the inside of the unit, which isn't a huge problem, as the beads on the bottom absorb it. The temperature is constant at ~65 degrees, but I can't seem to fix the humidity issue.

Someone with some know-how please help! Can't smoke dry cigars....
