Thanks, men! As a side note, as I'm now going from the temperature-controlled wineador to the Aristocrat that's at ambient room temperature, I'm sending all of my smokes through the freezer. All incoming smokes will be frozen from now on, also. I'm not taking any chances with beetles.

Congrats James ! Looks great, I may have to get one myself !

How much bigger is the Aristocrat than the wineador ? More cigar room ? Thanks

markem · 08-16-2016, 01:15 PM

Very nice! It's a piece a heirloom furniture and does its job amazingly.

Oh yes, MUCH more room. My wineador is an 18-bottle model and I currently have 11 boxes + two cedar tray drawers in it. The 11 boxes are packed in just about as tightly as can be. In the Aristocrat I'll probably have triple the space for boxes even with the space taken up by the Set & Forget humidifier, as well as drawer space for around 300 sticks.

Looks fabulous. Congrats.

Hang on to the wineador. You'll be able to fill up both the Aristocrat and the wineador before you know it!

I'm probably going to do something crazy with it like actually put some wine in it.

Or see if I can fit a small fermenter in it and use it when brewing beer to keep the temps nice and stable.

So what you are saying is that you have an empty wineador?
