Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long Post

Does your freezer keep ice cream well? If so, then it's certainly colder than 32F. Get yourself a reliable thermometer and see just how cold it is. My home freezer is around 0F. It swings up and down...

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long Post

Yes, that is correct. However a typical home fridge can get colder than that.

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long Post

I have not been able to find any studies done on this, and the ones that do address it, use words like "for some time". Also of note, some studies simply say that unless a temp of 80F is reached the...

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long Post

Thank you for the write up on the trap debate.

Maybe I wasn't clear either. The temp of 63 (65 was where they raised it and still found them flying) degrees was kept constant. This was from a...

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long Post

Like I said, "there is still debate" about how exactly they do so.

You have a further depth of knowledge about the tobacco industry than me. There have been a good number of B&M's that swear by...

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long Post

It's never too late, imo. But it will be tedious for you to do it with that many smokes. A simpler option might be to get the beetle traps that are sold at some places. From what I have read they...

You kid, but a BOTL once did an experiment on freezing cigars by using dry ice.

Why not just smoke them? Was the damage so bad that you couldn't smoke the cigar?

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long

Opinions are probably going to vary, but I have been known to smoke them as soon as they return to room temperature.

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long

Do you have any info that shows how long a beetle (larva or other stage) can remain dormant?

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long

And I think that is upmost in the discussion of beetles and cigars.

I don't have a large collection of smokes. So I can go through my whole collection, stick by stick, in around 30 minutes. Most...

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long

Yeah, that's the thing. I have thought of just about every aspect of how this could happen. The only thing I can figure is that the eggs were not killed, and my temps in FL get high. Most people on...

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long

That's the only thing I can think of. But I freeze everything now. Incoming from BOTL's and bought sticks. If it did come from some other stick, I didn't see any holes in another cigar. I checked...

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long

I used the exact method that SilverFox laid out the first time. And the second time they were frozen for 96 hours (4 days).

Re: How to Freeze and the Science behind it. Long

I have to disagree with you here. I personally have had eggs hatch after freezing twice.

I know you and I have had discussion before about this subject. After you showed me before the information...
