My first humi & batch of cigars (Pics) - Page 2

TriStar · 06-01-2009, 08:29 PM

Nice humi! Like yourself, I got mine as well from cheaphumidors. I also ordered a 400ct footlocker for my dad for Father's Day. They're really quick with shipping and they package nicely.

Don't worry about the empty space, you'll need a new one in no time lol

BeerAdvocate · 06-01-2009, 08:30 PM

Great Start. No turning back now!!!

Harold, do you know anybody who would certify that the Massholes are sane? You mittenheads are not much better.

I'm a fake masshole and a fake mittenhead as well.

Great humidor, that was the 2nd humdior I had.... than after 2 months it was too small

Watch out for the slope.

If you put them in photobucket you can change the size on there than it even gives you the link with the IMG stuff to post a pic. Very easy to use

bigloo · 06-01-2009, 09:13 PM

Good start my friend.

I love the look of a new humi. Everything neat and tidy, everything lines up, space to spare, tetris is still a game you play on the computer....

bvilchez · 06-01-2009, 10:28 PM

Welcome to the looney bin my friend......but tread lightly.....if not you'll be sliding down the slope

but then again it might be too late.......you're already here

Adriftpanda · 06-01-2009, 10:37 PM

I wish that was how I started out! Nice starter kit lol. Go bigger is all I have to say, once you start there is not turning back my friend!

Jimbo14 · 06-02-2009, 12:08 AM

Beautiful, thankyou for sharing!

colimo · 06-02-2009, 12:13 AM

nice starter humi....but these folks are misleading you....there is no slope....it's a cliff and you just jumped off.....there is no going back!

pretty soon you will be getting coolers cause they are cheaper...then another bigger humi....etc, etc...

Enjoy!!

Now here are the reasons; the analog hygrometer might be accurate now but it will most likely not be the next time that you adjust it. The digitals are very good once they have been through a calibration pack so that you know the differential for that particular hygrometer. The beads just make it so easy to regulate your humidor between 60 and 65 per cent and you get a temperature reading at the same time. Good luck and welcome. Any questions, please feel free to pm me. Paul

Thanks for the advice, it is much appreciated! I checked out Heartfelt beads and I will deffinitely get myself some 65% Humi beads in the near future. Is a calibration kit required or can I use the salt test? Also, with the beads in my humidor, would I still have to keep my humidifier in there as well?

I know the bottom is a little empty at the moment.. I'm trying to avoid going down the slippery slope as long as I can

.

Very nice and best of luck going slowly down the slope.

you always remember your first , have fun filing it up

taltos · 06-02-2009, 07:43 AM

Chris, many times the vendor will throw in the calibration kit with the purchase of a digital hygrometer. I like them because at under $5 they are convenient and more precise. You can get different readings from a salt test depending upon how you mix the salt and water.

Nice humi!
