My little coolidor project

Yes thermoelectric is preferred however I know some that use regular compressor type fridges without much issue, I believe Scott (Shilala) used compressor ones. The swings in RH are not as much of an issue if you mainly keep boxes in them because the boxes will help buffer the RH and the sticks inside them will stay at a fairly constant RH because it takes a while for the humidity to work its way into the boxes.

Nice work; it gives me some ideas!

That is a very nice little setup.

Gives me an idea. I have a 28 bottle unit but have a major overflow problem and I could use one of those for my ready to smoke stix and my big unit for aging.

Thanks for sharing!
