I was tempted to ask the same question you did Jamie, but read and realized how sensitive of a subject ISOMs are. If you have any doubt about whether or not you should post something, send a few different people a private message and you can get the response that way.

I read an article about Orlando Reyes (or whatever his name is) of Puros Indios in Cigar Aficionado, and was curious about his smokes, so I ordered a bundle and box of Cuba Aliados, and a box of Puros Indios from CBid (cost me like 60 bucks for all three). My intention, to age them and turn...

Perhaps a morning or mid-afternoon smoke then?

Put them in for 24 hours. Mine read 75% for the first 8 hours originally, and I assumed it was perfect. I redid the test for 24 hours and found it was 6-8% below what it should. Explained a lot of problem.

What's a good price for the RP Vintage seconds?

Well they are back on Cbid. They have 175 lots for sale, 12 in each. I figured I would try to get some, put in a max bid of 70 bucks. For what I pay for Gurkhas around here, 6 bucks a stick isn't bad. Hope they are good.

I don't know if this your boat, but you could always try to find the 2-5 dollar special at a garage sale. Or just grab one out of the garage like me.

Wow that is a great suggestion. And the seals on it are all good? It is the perfect size for me as far as storage for the next four years. I am really going to look into that, once again, thanks a ton.

Anyone smoked the #28 (8 1/2" , 52)? I like big cigars, but from what I am reading the #9 robusto is the way to go. Maduro a must too?

Only problem is next year I have to live in a dorm. As ya'll probably well know, there isn't very much room in freshman dorms. I just don't thank that baby will fit. Plus I play football and I try to keep my hobby on the down low. I don't want to have this huge as cooler taking up half my...

I think I am going to return the cooler. The way the slits are designed is not practical for me to deal with. It will take too much of my time to figure out how to put shelves in. BE AWARE OF THIS IF YOU BUY THIS COOLER. This is the cooler that my Costco in Austin sells, and as I said...

After approximately 24 hours the hygrometer is reading 68% RH. After about 6 hours it read 73%. I am guessing that my original reading was taken within 6-8 hours, and the system had not calmed down. If this is correct, then the system has equalized if you will, and my digital hygrometer is...

I bought a 152 qt. Igloo MaxCold from Academy today for 59.99. Felt like it was a good deal. The only problem is the slit(dividers) only come up about 7.5 inches. The total depth is about 14-15 inches. This creates a lot of problems for designing the shelves. Has anyone else used this...

Ok I am going to do the salt test again, and this time give it two days. I just bought a 152 quart Igloo, so I will be ditching the humidor soon enough. I ordered a pound of beads, will that be enough for the coolerdor? (I am about to do the math and find out for myself)

I am interested Swissy if other buyer doesn't work out. PM sent.

After about a week it still in the 56-59% range. I have a cup that is about 3 inches in diameter and the beads are about an .75-1 inch deep. The clear to white ratio is about 80/20. It is a hundred count humidor with about 40 cigars inside. Based on this information alone, what would you...

Right now I am not smoking any and it is killing me. I have a hole in my ankle that needs to fill in, and the nicotine restricts bone and cell growth some how or another, according to the doc. No cigars for six weeks, how sad.

If you do have a dog rocket pass, can you allow users with less 100 posts join? :0

I am not sure, but the humidity has been above 65% for a few weeks now. Just recently it got too high.

Hmmm... Last night it was up to 60% then I woke up this morning and back to 58%. Is this normal? I am guessing the system has to stabilize. How long does this usually take?
