My first coolidor

Dunkel · 05-28-2010, 08:41 AM

I ordered a cooler, trays and a hygrometer, but I'm wondering how many beads I need for a cooler that measures 16" L, 10.375" W, and 9.375 H? I know there's a site with a calculator to figure it out but I can't remember what it was. Thanks in advance

Here you go, Doug. Calculator at the bottom of the page.

Thanks Jeff! Looks like I need 2.9 Ounces. Guess I'll go with 4 ounces to be on the safe side.

You're welcome. More beads just means your RH will recover faster.

Just wanted to update y'all. My coolidor is all set up with a 4 oz bag of Shilala beads and is holding 65% humidity and between 68-70 degrees. Very cool how easy it was to get the humidity right. I still have my Don Salvatore Cuban Wheel Humidor for my soon to be smoked cigars, but I'll never buy a humidor again. Coolidors rock!

I am using a Cooler to store sticks until my Vinodoor is done. Will remember it, may have to use it in the future, if mine fills up.
