This will make me happy … tomorrow. Saturday weather, should hit 65* by 9:00 a.m., high of 80*, mostly sunny. I’m giving it a quick check and cleaning with Quick Detailer today …

@MrPerfecto Thank you for this info! I'm new here and this is so awesome! If the proprietor of that site is a member here, I'd like to thank him! My order:

I apologize to Tom. I'm sure CigarStone is very pretty. :) I will sit in sackcloth and ashes for one week before posting again. Seriously, the information has been helpful, the eating crow post was designed to show some humility.

This post was an apology, it’s why I posted it, I’m not going to name everyone I. The post. Now you’re just being petty.

Wineador now stable at 61F and 69RH. Humidor still seasoning a little bit, dampened paper towel in the bottom. Will run that with two 69 Boveda packs when stable.

I used to get them straight from the wineador in the basement and smoke them. Someone mentioned here letting cigars "calm down". I brought up an old desktop humidor from downstairs and seasoned it. I will move some sticks from the basement to the humidor on ground level a couple weeks before...

Well ... I hate doing this, but it happens from time to time. Apparently relative is more important than the volume of water in cigar storage. I kept researching and found an article from JR cigar that helped me understand nothing bad would happen to my cigars stored at 60-62F, but keep the...

There is quite a bit of information on the Internet regarding changing if RH with temperature, actually, now that I’ve gone down this rabbit hole. Since I preferred 65% to begin with at 70F, I’ll stop at 75% at 60F, some of those chart numbers seem way too high. I also think it’s better to err...

And And You are all arguing the wrong direction. There's a pattern evolving here. The first one shows ridiculously high RH, IMO. But these all go the way I, and that video, are arguing.

I'm sorry. Not trying to be argumentative. But you need to watch that video. You really do. This comment makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. It's not "one man's opinion" and it's not YMMV. The physical amount of moisture in the stick at 60F is a measurable amount of moisture. The stick is not...

Ah, here you go. Because I prefer 65% at 70F, I'll go with 75% in the basement wineador.

A) Thank you to @BlindedByScience for helping me understand storing at a stable 60F won't hurt the cigars. B) The rest of you (forgive me for being so blunt as a new member) simply do not understand the concept of RELATIVE humidity. As an accomplished cook, I understand the effects of moisture...

Well, that makes sense in a normal temperature range, but at 60F 70% is not enough. They should slowly dry out. At 70F I prefer 65% RH myself. But I would like to know if storing them at 60F, yet very stable, is bad for them. I think probably not, just looking for someone to corroborate. I...

I've had my Newair Wineador in the basement next to my actual wine 😊 for several years now. I never thought about the term "relative" humidity before for some reason. I should have, I mean I know what it is, I just never thought about it and kept it at 70% RH, but the temp is a pretty stable...
