Throwing the hygrometer into a caddy with a Boveda pack for a day or so works as well. The caddy's seal is as close to perfect as possible. Boveda sells a calibration kit, but it's basically a regular pack with a big bag for the hygrometer.
Of course, this is only convenient if you have a Boveda pack laying around.
