Humidor beads question

Should i get the 65% or 70%? What is the difference?

I like the 65% myself. The difference is 5% RH.

I tend to like my smokes at the 65% for smoking. Some guys will keep their aging boxes at 70%.

I think it's safe to say most guys keep their cigars at 65%.

I'd say get the 65% but its you preference.

Rumor has it that 70% RH helps along the aging process, but it wont produce as good of a smoke as 65% RH. IMO, 65% for your everyday box, and 70% RH if you wanna start aging cigars.

...oxygen effects aging, not RH. Too high of an RH will effect draw and possibly split your wrappers.

I also have found bad burns, mostly canoeing.
