Any ideas.
Put a cloth over the drain, when it gets wet replace and move it to another part of the wineador to recycle the moisture. I use the neck coolers from the sporting goods stores, they absorb and shed moisture very well. I have even taken to wetting them down with distilled water if the humidity stays low in the unit.
Then I use the big Boveda 65s in the drawers just to help regulate.
Plug the drain hole with what? I plugged it with a paper towel I wound tightly from the backside of the unit and put a big block boveda in front of the drain indention so that the condensation wouldn't cause any issues. Could it be that there is mor than just the drain hole that would be wide open?

I just made a plug with electrical tape and jammed it in there, ez pz.
Ya, plugging the hole is the most common solution to most of life's problems.

I ran wiring in for some extra fans through the drain hole, then taped it shut.
Check your hygrometer. If you have a 2nd one, drop it in your wineador to make sure the other isn't on the fritz. Happened to me once.
Those cigars should act like a humidity buffer, if properly humidified before their introduction.
How many pounds should I have for 600 cigars?
My hygro is off by 3-4%, I accounted for that already.
You fit 600 cigars in your wineador?
HTF did you do that?
(1 pound is fine imo).
The only info I can find on how much to use is based on square space and not the amount of stogies. Which I am sure you already have that knowledge but just in case.
Measure the depth, width and height (example is 24” depth, 36” wide and 48” height)
Multiply the three:
24x36x48=41472 cubic inches
Multiply this by .00185185 (ounces needed per cubic inch); 41472x.00185185=76.799 ounces
Divide this answer by 16 (ounces in a pound); 76.799/16=4.79
You would need 4.79 pounds of Heartfelt Humidity Beads for this humi.
Also from what I have read you can go over the amount needed as it will just equalize even better at what ever the beads are set for.
I have never had a large enough stash nor could afford to acquire such and need a large space like that so I have to admit I am talking out my ass here. I am assuming that this is for humidors and not a wineador and I have no clue if the same is applied.
Just trying to help JJ, I do hope you get it all sorted out. 👍
That would be a giant ass wineador Ewok... but I guess everything looks giant to an Ewok.
Bwahahahahaha... For sure... Now imagine being at ass level all your life... I feel bad for the dwarfs. Could you imagine the air quality at that height? 😲 😲 😨 [barf] [barf] [barf]
