Controlling Humidity in a 55 Quart Coolidor

[Gamehawker]

Since Heartfelt Beads it seems does not sell any humidity beads anymore, what does everyone use in the coolidors to keep the humidity around 65%?

I really liked the Heartfelt Beads and I don't want to use Boveda for a solution to maintain my 55 quart coolidors.

TIA

Why don't you want to use Boveda? I've got a coolidor and the packs do a great job.

I prefer to use some type of Heartfelt humidity beads (I have been using them for over 20 years and having good results) so I can regulate with my own distilled water the humidity in my six 55 quart coolidors to protect my ever growing investment of over 2,500 aged Cuban cigars.

I have 120 qt coolers I use fro overflow, I just use a rectangle clear puck that is filled with crystal gel beads that swell with distilled water. It's not an exact science but it works fine for months at a time.

Here's one on Amazon!

I only ever used my heartfelt beads when I had a useless old desktop that definitely didn't hold humidity. They've been gathering dust in a draw for about 10 years now.

That's a tidy collection!
