New Savoy Desktop Humidor Humidity Question (Thanks in Advance)

[dwoodward]

2 weeks is best in my opinion. Keep the water dish in there for that long as well, don't remove anything, a sponge will help, rotate the sponge in the water every couple days to make sure it's saturated.

Don't worry about the GF, mine hated it too at first.

A little tip for that, convince her to take a few puffs when your smoking, mine ended up liking a Perdomo Grand Cru and started experimenting, now she's already claiming my old humidor when I get my new wineador all set up.

While staying at the Shangri-La in the Philippines, I got her to try a Cuban Montecristo no. 4 which she liked.

When you say sponge, I'm guessing you mean just a straight SPONGE, not the one with one side that has the rough side, or would that be fine too?

Thanks!
