what is the best way to break this humidor in? 0 -
I am sure others more experienced will chime in, but I normally wipe the entire inside down with a new sponge with distilled water, then re-dampen the sponge and set it on top of a plastic bag inside and close the lid for 24 hours. Use a hygrometer that has been calibrated and check it after the 24 and see where you stand. There is a good video by cigarobsession on youtube that will walk you through all the steps as well.0

0patience:No, no, no. Don't do that. Cause even if you send one stick, I come out on top and that wouldn't be right.

0patience:Well then. I like that cigar, so I'll just sit back and sulk. LOL! You realize that isn't playing fair.

If you wipe it down make sure you just lightly dampen it. You don't want to get the wood too wet it can cause warping and cracking. I always just put a shot glass of distillers water in it and just let it set for 3 days to a week. Just leave it closed for at least 3 it go faster if your not opening it all the time checking on it.0

Dude, how did you cram that many Swishers in a 20-ct? I could only get one in my trunkidor... LOL!
Looks good, Dave. +1 to Tay's comment. Give it time and you'll be using the 20-ct as a doorstop.0 -
