Bossman333 Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Hello everyone, I have a quick question. I recently received 23 sticks from friend and 3 of them were cracking and peeling. I put them in a large ziploc with 1 water pillow. Zipped it shut and put it inside a large Tupperware container. Will 1 water pillow do what I need for these sticks? Thanks all.

CaptainQuintero Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I'm not that keen on water pillows myself; I don't like the idea of something actively wet/damp touching my cigars. Beads are my go to method for humidors big or small. Just take your time. If they are dry then very slowly bring their humidity back up over a few months and the opposite with over humidified cigars. If you make big humidity changes quickly then more damage will likely happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cohiba Stevie Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Get rid of the water pillow and get a boveda pack. 65% version would do the trick but you can get a higher rh version if you want. Hope it works for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
