Yes, I bleed them before a refill. I've got a glasses repair kit with a tiny screw driver that perfectly presses down the nozzle in the bottom of the lighter. That was my first though too - I didn't bleed them enough - so I double and triple checked that there was no fricken gas left in that...

I'm a little late to the thread, but I just joined and I love Christmas so I thought I’d share. I’ve been doing Christmas at my place for 5 years now. It's always been a big deal in my family and thankfully, we're all close enough that everyone (21 of us this year) can still gather together to...

My dog (14 year old black lab) is going through the same thing right now. He doesn't have much feeling/control over his back legs because of spine issues. I have to carry him up the steps at night (he sleeps in my room) and up the back steps in the morning when I let him out. We've got him on...

A little backaround:I've had three torch lighters now (single flame) and I've yet to get one that reliably works. The first one was some generic cheap one. I figured it was generic and cheap and that is probably why it's not working. I bought an Xikar lighter next. Not too shabby looking...

Yup, if you need to mix it with something, then it's not good tequila. I love a good anejo tequila and a leathery, peppery stogie. Simply bliss. Jose Cuervo of all companies makes on of my favorites. It's a small batch tequila called Resevera De La Familia. Different recipe each year, but...

I've just been using purified water and the little plastic encased sponge that comes with the humidor. So, if I'm reading correct then I just need to let it sit a while and the RH will eventually rise? Concerning the beads, I read the large bead FAQ and there doesn't seem to be any beads that...

So, as stated in my intro thread I'm relativly new to this whole cigar thing. I had a small (20 ct) humidor but the seal on it broke. I bought a 100ct humidor to replace it since the 20ct wasn't nearly enough anymore. I seasoned it and calibrated my hygdrometer with the salt water test and...
