I just purchased a Display Humidor from a friend. He bought it 5 years ago when a local cigar store remodeled. He like his cigars in the 65-66 range. I prefer them around 69-70. Size is 68" wide x 80" tall and 14" deep. with 7 shelves going accross the entire width. It holds between 100-140 boxes...no I don't have that many...maybe can fill it half way. What is the best way to go for desired humidity.

"What is the best way to go for desired humidity. "

Go west young man. Go west.

thats a big humidor.

I'd start by stuffing a bunch of empty boxes in it......ballast if you will. Chunks of Spanish Cedar, mahogany, etc..........something to help maintain the humidity and reduce the volume of air.

Then I'd "season" it with a bucket of water. I really don't think you need to use distilled water since it is evaporating anyway.

Then I'd maintain the humidity with a **** ton of beads.

And remember to think humid thoughts . . .

Fill it up with empty cigar boxes, and buy an active humidifier like Hyder LG or something similar.

I think it's best to send the humi to me and see if I can get it to work properly. You are probably better off with something smaller and more suited to your needs....... I do have enough to fill your cabinet!

Fill it with rocks and put it in the Bathtub for a day..

What Andy said. Could use an oasis type humidifier instead of beads. A humi that big would take a lot of beads.

Bought the cedar to line the back wall and sides, top and bottom. Cost more than the Display. Went to my friendly cigar store, and got 50 empty boxes for $25 bucks ...not bad. Installed the wood and gave them a good dose of distilled water. Waiting for the humidity to settle.

Post this in C &R, you gots more dedicated asshats on cigars over in C & R , some of them are scared to enter the miscellaneous forum.

Good luck & "Bless your little BIG HUMIDOR heart".
