Seasoning the NewAir CC-100H CC-300 with Boveda

[AdamJoshua]

Nope just get the sponge soaked and squeeze it out a bit, then put it on a small plate. Leave it closed for at least 24 hours, then open it and check to see how dry the sponge is, if it's dry you can wet it and repeat the process.

I have not used a wine cooler before but I have a Vinotemp the uses a wine chiller. I can tell you that for years I chased the humidity because every time the chiller kicks on the humidity drops. And I was always having to refill the humidifier. I live in SoCal so after 10 year I finally unplugged it put in a few small tubs of beads and it sits at 65% all the time (If you still want to run it my guess is you would dry out the packs very fast)

this has temp control, and i will have multiple boveda packs to make sure the RH doesnt change too much

The cooling system will remove humidity a LOT faster than some Boveda packs will replenish it.

Some lessons must be learned first hand. I hope that the Boveda packs do as you expect, but I caution you to be open to other options if your approach fails to yield the results that you want.
