Hi Jfields,
No I didnt as it didnt seem to effect the results, I verified this by doing the moist cloth calibration straight after the salt calibration. The result was 5% under. It seems the salt test is more prefered, so instead of adding another 5% I added another 3% and thought this will...
Excellent many thanks for the info here, the links and advise has been great!
also thanks to napa_smokes via PM's
I'll grab the calibratable digital hygro with the humi pack :)
Hey all
Things seemed to look alright so I thought I’d try and load it up. (keeping cigars in wrappers) so if I wasn’t happy its no big deal to empty it again.
The cigars have been in there for about 4hrs and its currently reading about 78% - I’m using a pre mixed solution(bought mixed) so...
Many thanks BBS.
Sorry for hijacking the thread.
I've been doing alot of searching recently but I obviously need to perfect my searching skills as I spend what feels like forever going through irrelevant results.
I got lazy, and felt like asking Wyatt his thoughts. My apologies. I'll keep...
Thanks for that :)
Do you not feel it might be more beneficial if you was to open the ends up a little to allow them to air out better? I noticed they're folded over still.
I'm about to load my humi with some cigars and thought i'd leave the wrappers on but have the ends open so that things...
Hey all,
Thanks a lot for the help, I’d of been lost without this great resource.
I did the salt test, which informed me my hygrometer was 20% out of calibration(under). Due to the previously mentioned concerns about my salt, I then did the water test which was another 5% out under, from my...
Great thanks Mysterea!
I'll drain off this excess liquid thats formed ontop of the salt then.
What I plan on doing, is as you mentioned - my salt might not be right for the job, So, I'll do the salt test and calibrate, then do the water test, if the water test gives a reading like 60% then I...
Thank you very much.
Steve, sorry if I overloaded with info.
Mark, great, thanks! 10-14days! I see! Very helpful indeed.
I have some deionized water sat here doing nothing, any use? Or do I need to head out to the shop and grab some more distilled water for the 14 day seasoning?
I found...
Hello all,
Sorry – another noob here.
I’ve had a few things running through my head recently but kept refraining from making a topic as I didn’t want to rush into questions that didn’t really need asking. But I feel now that I could really appreciate some advice as I’m quite cautious and don’t...
Monkey, I noticed you said a damp paper towel took your reading upto 100% how long did this take?
While waiting for my soultion i've had a shot glass in my humidor for a good 48 hours, i'm still reading 45% ???
My soultion arrived today and i'm a little unsure how wet my humidifier needs to...
I smoked an Acid Nasty a few months back, after reading the name in the store - I thought, I've gotta try that!!I couldn’t resist!
.....:blush: It was well named
Thanks Monkey,
I thought that might of been the case. I'm hoping to get my hands on a digital hygrometer to borrow off a friend (if he can find it) to get an idea of how good / bad mine is, and then, and keep one on the wishlist for a bit.
I made the big noob mistake, my cigar and humidor...
Hi all,
Interesting stuff, I'm learning alot - or at least trying to! Thanks for all the great info.
I'm curious about humidor hygometer readings, I see alot of hygrometers inside the humidor, but some on the front... for example (here) can this work as effectively as one on the inside?
I...
