I will try to move it upstairs that has a more steady 70 degree heat. I live way up north and when winter sets in the air is ridiculously dry.

Any tips, hints, thoughts what makes a good tupperdor. Any ideas would help until I get a second humidor on line.

Thanks

I will have get some more Heartfelt Humidity beads then pronto.

Thanks

Alway glad to help out a fellow Stiller fan!

I live in Blitzburgh territory where the winters are cold and the summers are hot and humid. Heartfelt beads keep my stash perfect year round.

I have been eyeballing a wine fridge for conversion and may just go buy one at Sams Club and end the pain. This way the wife will have even more difficulty keeping track how many I have.

Steeler Nation is everywhere. I am less than an hour from Montreal near the Canadian Border and we have a good showing of support in these parts. Bad weather but Cuban cigars are a short drive away.

I understand all about dry air.

The humidifier on my furnace has not worked for the last few years and I get pure hot dry air circulating thru the house.

The 65% HF beads hold my humis steady at 64%-65% .

On the other side of the coin . . .

Living in the Philly area, the humidity in the summer is unbearable at times (70%-90%) and the HF beads keep my humis at a consistent 65%-67%.

Good choice !

jes

Wineador is a great option. Too bad Canadian cigar taxes are so high!

Steelers nation IS EVERYWHERE! Let's hope we can get back on track Sunday nite!

Skip the Tupperdor, forget about the wineador, and just get yourself a big ass cooler. IMHO the wineador is an expensive overkill, paying for a cooling feature that's hardly used, if at all. If you keep your house (or cigar room) at around 65-68° then you're all set. If you really are that close to the Canadian border, cool temperatures should be easy to maintain.

80% humidity is way too high. Drop it down to around 62% and you'll be much happier with how your cigars smoke.

And from a former Pittsburgher… Go Steelers LOL!. I said during the 3rd pre-season game when we couldn't field a kicker there was no way we where making the Play-Offs. I think the folks in the front offices are smoking something from Colorado. It's the only explanation for signing Michael Vick. And hopefully this will be Ben's last year - duct tape and staples are all that's holding him together.

Stood my cooler on end like a cabinet, complete with old pool cue bumpers as feet. Not hard to dig through at all.

Would rather control the temp & humidity for a single large cooler, than trying to maintain the same environment in numerous containers.

Brainless and can be recharged

I like the vertical cooler idea!! I might try that. One advantage of separate containers is if you are paranoid about beetles....though I have never had that problem.

I have had luck with endless rotation of bovedas. Moving packs into high humidity garage till they plump back up again. Dont know how many times I can do that.

¿¿¿ we do grow alot of hay and corn but I would not

Suggest smoking either???

To what other export of our proud state could you possibly be referring?

Mostly due to price, I think I am going to switch from my two 150ct humidors to a tupperdor. I have read enough good reviews of them to be comfortable with their humidity control if you buy the right ones.

What are the right ones? I was searching through the Home Depot site and there are like 300 different ones. What are some of the best ones that are still economical?

What is a good size? I would say I want something that holds 20-30 boxes of cigars...I think.

Thanks!

Don't do that ... keep on using the humidors for short term and current storage and ADD the tupperdor for long term storage ...

I use 116-quart Sterilite containers ($17) with 1 gel jar and 4 Bovedas, mostly full of cigars. Works perfectly.

If I got a 116-quart cooler, it'd be frightfully-expensive, and would have very thick walls making its exterior size much bigger than the Sterilite. Oh, and it wouldn't be CLEAR like the Sterilite, so I can read the hygro without ever having to open it! Also the Sterilites are stackable, for when your sickness gets worse! 🍺

Everyone talks about coolers, but if the room doesn't have big temperature swings, they're unnecessary. Save space and tons of money and go with Sterilite or similar clear plastic containers.

My problem is that my humidors are packed to the brim so I can't buy more cigars right now. I might be able to fit a few more, but not many. Don't want to spend the money on another humidor if I can upgrade to the tupperdor.

Go for the gusto....

COOLIDOR. 75 quart min.
