    66% headed to 80's in a couple days (hopefully)

    edit: Update: Just hit 69 lulz


    Mind you, getting the interior air up to 80% is actually pretty easy. You could just put a shot glass or two of water in there and get to that number. It's getting the wood to absorb enough of that moisture to maintain that % regularly. Much like the boards, it's going to take you some tim to get it dialed in no matter how FS you are about it. You are off to a good start though.
    I don't understand what is happening.
    My best analogy I could come up with while sexting @Swaye is that it works a bit how a freezer does. An empty freezer is easy to get cold but takes a lot more to maintain because anytime you open it you let all the cold air out. If you load up the freezer with a bunch of already frozen stuff though, it has an easy time staying cold. Even if you open it, it only has to replace a little bit of cold air and the already frozen stuff will help maintain the temp.

    It's easy to get the air humid in the humidor,(cold air in the freezer), but it's harder to get the humidor itself up to the right level(the whole freezer at the right temp). You can throw a few cheap cigars(similar to putting already frozen food in an empty freezer) in there and it might actually help the process along assuming they aren't already super dried out(that would be like putting warm food in the freezer).

    I just wouldn't put anything I really care about in there until you get it dialed in bc of fear of mold more so than drying anything out. You can mostly recover a dried out cigar. A moldy one is trash and nothing can be done.
    No, I get the physics involved. I'm just laffing because I've never owned a humidor, because while I love a good smoke as much as anyone here, I am more of a hunter gather when is comes to cigars. When I'm in the mood, I get one at a good shop and smoke it within the next 24- 48 hours.
    Hard to tell with a history major. Plenty of other retards at HH though so maybe it will help someone.
    I'm great at physics so long as there's no maff.

    Shit has stabilized at a nice 72% and I am letting it rest for a day before introducing the stogies. I knew everyone would want an update.

    You inspired me to bother with a digital hygrometer. Turns out my analog was a "whopping" 5% off. I added some water.

    I tried to dial my analog in off the digital, and it was fine, until the next day when it was 3% off. Dialed it in again. Next day it had gone 4% the OTHER direction. WTF over?

    Wonder if Rolex makes a hygrometer so I can have an accurate one in analog?
