Cigar oasis Super mod with gel beads

[The Mans Man]

I just made a really nice modification to my cigar oasis humidifier and I thought it would be appreciated to share my new set up with everyone as i put a little frankinstine twist on it.

So my number one concern has always been humidity and temperature, living up here in cold Canada, Alberta to be exact it is a challenge to balance both and with my collection ranging from $150 cigars to the basic robusto It was always such a pain to balance my humidor of about 200 until I bought the cigar oasis which I feel is the number one humidifier on the market with two years running trouble free.

The problem I had was the replacement cartridge, a real pain having to order so I decided to just replace the foam by popping open the cartridges. Very simple just use a sharp thin and short knife on each end and gently apply pressure. I went and bought the wet foam and was just getting ready to open the package to cut it into pieces when I noticed the warning on the side
(known to cause CANCER)

So I did a little research and yes, this is bad news fellas I wouldn't attempt dealing with it. Some bad cancer causing agents and I just probably coated my cigars with it for the past two years, chemicals like fromeldahyde that are in the foam. I threw the block in the garbage and then went and bought the gel beads, soaked them in ciguardian solution which is regulated at 70 degrees then dumped it into the cartridges and used a little scotch tape to seal it back up.

The gel beads are non toxic and it's been a month or more and I haven't had to do a single thing other than open my humidor to let my golden Cuban Cohiba collection breath once a week ! I feel much better about this resolution let's face it the cigars them selves are loaded full of cancer causing agents, why add to it ? Plus from what I heard in my research on these gel beads I read the young ins are soaking them in alcohol and eating them (funny) so I guess I guy can soak them in a nice hennasy scotch and catch an extra kick while burnin a stick..

Just my 2.0

Really. Is that necessary?

[dwoodward]

nvm

[Sadden]

If your using the cigaroasis to regulate humidity why coat the beads in a pg solution. i would just charge them with distilled water and let the cigaroasis do the worrk. It is what its for. and besides which with pg solution your stuck at 70% rh. if you let the cigaroasisi regulate you can turn it up or down as your needs dictate.

Damn, vato, why did you have to do us like that, esse? I was just going to share my molybdenum Cohibas with you too...

This is grounds for a Cremosa Mega HERF, with some cancer spray snooters.

I would say troll post, but don't think he will be posting back. This could be a thread of epic proportions, but don't think it will last. I am starting an experiment using embalming fluid on my ISOM's, instead of silica. Can't be any worse than the toxins already in cigars. Any advice would be much appreciated.

With the people we live with in this society the concern of 'gel beads' killing me is way down my list around 97 or 98.

Maybe he's just spelling things phonetically...

While he's working on his spelling, maybe he could take another look at grammar and punctuation.

Only 5 minutes tells us that you didn't watch any of the youtube videos that were cleverly placed throughout the thread for everyone's enjoyment, so you hardly experienced the thread as it was meant to be.

How did I miss this thread!!!! This is great.
