Tracking What Cigars you have - Page 2

Ashcan Bill · 02-12-2011, 10:18 PM

I've got a rough idea of what I have, but gave up really trying to keep track.

Anymore, whenever I see an opening I think I can fit a box into, I just order a new box. It's a lot easier this way.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

I have a spreadsheet. It's really not that hard. Just track what comes in. BUT where it is in the humidor is another story! I have no idea.

HAHA yea I hear ya there..

So Ive got pen and paper and figuring out a matrix of what all to record in the database, and what to use for search parameters and such.

I Know Some people have there own ways.. Sounds like most like a surprise.. But I guess my deal is im still new and haven't smoked everything out there yet.. So When i goto a cigar shop sometimes i end up coming home with one I already had that I didnt know I had lol

So Even if no one uses this.. It will be good for me.

After so many cigars, it's too many to keep up with. I just dig throgh them every now and then and surprise myself.

I keep an online Google Spreadsheet. Whenever I smoke a cigar, I deduct it from my inventory from my Droid

Bill86 · 02-12-2011, 08:16 PM

I dunno I just know roughly give or take 25-50 how many sticks I have. As far as what they are....meh I just dig through my cooler and desktop and find something I want to smoke at the time.

I have a spread sheet using Micosoft Excel. works well.

chand · 02-12-2011, 08:37 PM

I designed a spreadsheet to use.

My list isn't quite big enough just yet to have these kinds of worries, unfortunately.

shilala · 02-13-2011, 06:08 AM

I just keep track of cigar containers. I know where most of them are at all times.

Skywalker · 02-13-2011, 08:26 AM

A little bit of memory and like Tom, I enjoy a good surprise!

I organize by size, vitola rather than brand. I also keep CCs in a different humidor from NCs because they tend to fight.

kafreeman · 02-12-2011, 10:15 PM

I just take a look... I have a pretty good idea of what I have where.

I pick a humidor open it up and pic one off that top. I also have my set up so that I have everyday sticks on the left, good sticks in the middle and great sticks on the right of every humidor. So depending on what I'm in the mood for I know where to look.

RFID tags and asset manager database. Right now it's only 2D and by box, but I'm working on an upgrade that tags every cigar individually and with a few more readers, it'll show a 3D representation of the humidors so you can actually see where each cigar is.

Dude that is awesome! Are you really doing that? I just had this thought the other day and wondered how I would achieve that. Do you manually type in each box, and do you keep track of them by stick? I wondered if this would be a good project for the arduino.
