Humiditiy issue

Anthem · 08-04-2009, 03:51 PM

I keep my cigars in the basement since it's cooler than upstairs. Unfortunately, it seems to be more humid in the basement, but I picked up a dehumidifier, and I run this in the basement when I find the RH creeping up in the humidors.

You could make a dry box and put the cigars in there a few days to a week or more before you smoke them.

The beads should work but humidity stabilization is not a quick process, especially if the sticks are squishy-wet as you say. Give it some more time.
