You can never have too many cigars, they are like an investment in good times.

Just under 70 about 68 but I'm thinking it's too high since the last few ISOMs didn't burn well!

Default Re: Humidity?

My beads are 65% but it's so dry where I live the three desktops are usually between 60-65 and the vino stays where it should be. I guess I need another vino.

Between 65%-70%. I don't sweat it that much. As long as the cigars stay tasty... all that matters!
