Default OK now I'm confused

So I recently moved. My old apartment stayed at a steady 75 degrees on cold days and went up from there. My humidors (a 175 and a 50 ct) never dropped from 75 degrees but the humidity never rose from 60% which is how I love to smoke my cigars. I dealt with the temperature and had constantly check them.

But now at my new place the temperature is a lot cooler staying around 63-65 degrees, which means I don't have to worry so much about the heat. The humidity of my humidors at first stayed around 65% but last night I went to check them and the hygrometers were reading 68% and 69%. Here's what I don't get, I have about 6 ounces of dry beads in my 175 ct. Shouldn't the beads be sucking up the extra moisture in the humidors? What can I do to lower that humidity?
