Eric05 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 as others have said, i would freeze all your cigars. There is nothing from stopping them to go into another box, rather be safe then sorry. Also look at your temp in your humidor. They can hatch at any time but if there are times were your humidity or temp is high, well thats the perfect storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Corona Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 After you've froze them all to smithereens....go pick up some pectin at your local grocery store. Mix a little with some distilled water to make a paste and use a tooth pick to mud over the holes. Put a torch to it and enjoy! If you hear a little "pop" when you're doing a draw you'll know there was another dead body on the inside. ? I use the pectin for loose wrappers and such also. Less is more..... don't need much at all just enough to stick things back together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MPS Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Why take any chances? Freeze everything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bords Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I don’t freeze and have only had one or two holes over the years. In those cases I plugged with pectin and a small wrapper patch from the cut head and burned em. Smoked and tasted great BTW.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ry27 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 new to the forum and FOH, so I apologize if this question isn't directly related to the OP, but I figured it isn't too off track. Do you all freeze your boxes you purchase from FOH?? Ive got 3 inbound and curious the process you all take, thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only around 10% of members freeze all stock coming in from FOH. I don't think it is necessary but there is certainly no harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
