Storage Upgrade Suggestions?

Kreth · 01-04-2010, 05:50 PM

I should've grabbed the Xtreme 70 qt. when I saw it last week. I ended up snagging an Igloo Family 48 qt. (no idea where it came from, it wasn't out last week). I'll scrub it out with baking soda and water tonight.
Also picked up some GE Silicone II (yes, he can be taught!) for the desktop humi, and some Backwoods since I didn't plan this quitting cigs things very well. I think I'm gonna order some Holt's Shorties tomorrow...

A lot of good info here, that's for sure.

Varnished/un-varnished, makes no difference.

You don't want a completely airtight system, but restricted. You sticks do need to breathe as they continue to "offgas" as they continue to mature. (ever find an Ammonia-type smell in your cooler???)

And one last thing...

So, you're admitting that you have an empty cooler?!?

Only while it's airing out after being scrubbed down with baking soda. Tomorrow it'll be loaded up with the contents of the Sterilite bin, and also the contents of my desktop for a few days so I can add silicone around the glass.

Ahh, glad you liked them.

Yeah, they're decent, especially for just over a buck a stick. Those house sticks you sent were pretty tasty, too. I think I can survive on Backwoods until the Shorties get here. Ordered at 10 am, apparently Holt's doesn't ship as quick as CI.

A little over 4 days with no cigs. I'm in that lovely "coughing the nasty sh!t out of my lungs" stage.
