    Vinotemp Questions

    Personal preference. You'll find some cigars smoke better at different humidities. I find some are best at about 62% but other I prefer a bit higher. I find 65% is a good all around humidity to keep them for smoking. I have started to find that about 70% is good for aging, but I'm not...

    Cigar Cases

    If you want a travel case something along the lines of what was mentioned previously is great. I got mine free awhile back from cheaphumidors.com because I placed an order of a certain size. There are a couple different brands that make them but they are all pretty much the same, a good hard...

    Since there is another gun thread...

    Dr. Marneaus, I know you want an actual rifle, but I think a pellet gun is perfect for what you want to do. You want to do some plinking and target shooting and your not a hunter or looking to defend yourself with it. You can save quite a bit of money, not just with the initial purchase but...

    I need a cigar...

    Short term a plastic baggie would work. You could easily set up a tupperdor (tupperware humidor) that would work till you spring for a humidor. I'll send you a pm with some stuff.

    Thats a pretty good deal, if I didn't already have a Palio I would definitely be thinking about it.

    Stem Glass GB

    I don't know much about beer and have only recently started trying good beer, but so far it seems like a glass allows some beers a chance to breath a bit and can really open up the flavors. I've had a couple beers that tasted horrible from the bottle, but once I pored them in a glass they...

    Vintage 2000 Opus X Robusto

    I have never tried an aged Opus but I have the same feelings about them when young. I've had some that were very good, I've had some that were just good, and I've had a couple that were absolute crap. The last opus I lit up I threw away shortly into the smoke, it was horrible. The rest of...

    an old late night custom returns

    I've never seen the show but I do own a few knives from Frost Cutlery. I knew what I was getting when I ordered so I was happy, but they make some very low quality knives. As far as knives go I believe quality is very important. For day to day carry I have a case trapper, this knife will...

    I just got a new baby! It's a Montegue I picked up from Dave at Southsidecigar.com Dave helped me out alot to make sure this happened. This specific humidor is shipped freight, but his supplier is in south Florida, about 4 hours away from me, Dave was able to set it up so I could pick up...

    Wax paper in humidor !

    MadMonk brings up a good point. I've read somewhere that getting any of the salt/water combo on the sensors of the hygro. will ruin it. I personally use the boveda packs, I just like not worrying about having to find a perfectly level surface that won't be disturbed for awhile. Boveda sells...

    Wax paper in humidor !

    You do need to calibrate the hygrometers. Do a search for salt test. It sounds like they are too humid. Perhaps the bad water may also be affecting them. Change out the water and the foam and calibrate your hygrometers.

    Randomness

    I'll sit this one out, but if your into knives get yourself a Case. Case makes some of the best pocket knives I've ever handled. They can be pricey but you can find a pretty good deal if you look around and if you treat it right it may very well outlast you.

    I need a cigar...

    Gixxer, I'm guessing your only here for some suggestions and are going to disappear afterwards. I hope I'm wrong; I recommend you stick around and see what we're about. Cigars can be a lot more than a roll of tobacco that you puff on, they can lead to new friendships and believe it or not but...
