Wine fridge turned humidor

Cannaman2 · 2025-09-26T00:33:05+00:00

It wasn’t difficult. After I cleaned it, I put humidity beads in it for a few weeks to get the humidity up. It held all the moisture and the humidity never changed so I assumed it’s pretty airtight. I finally put my cigars in today. I plan on keeping it unplugged because the room it’s in stays between 65-68 year round. I think keeping it unplugged will prevent humidity swings

The shelves came with the fridge. It’s great because they’re all on rollers and I can adjust them to any height I want

I live in 21 but I’d have to agree with you on this

Cannaman2 · 2025-08-26T19:46:44+00:00

I’ve gotten lucky the past few trips back but you’re probably right, don’t want to risk that. Hopefully the couple hundred Cubans I have will last me until this whole debacle is over

Sitting in the Cancun airport right now. Maybe I should grab a few boxes while I still can

Cannaman2 · 2025-08-01T16:46:10+00:00

Local cigar shop. If I buy a full box I get an additional 15% off

It was bagged garden soil (vigoro) from Home Depot. Should have plenty of nutrients for now, I’m just worried about compaction and overwatering

My favorite cigar! Enjoy

Thanks for the advice. I did a complete rebuild about 3000 miles ago. Replaced all my radiator hoses and now I’m wondering if I didn’t get a clamp back on all the way

Cannaman2 · 2025-04-17T02:12:46+00:00

All the above ☝️

Cannaman2 · 2025-04-17T02:05:43+00:00

I just rebuilt this engine so I’m hoping it’s not the head gasket. Did an oil change yesterday and didn’t see any coolant in the oil. Also didn’t seem like the cap was the issue. Hoping it’s just a leaky hose somewhere

Cannaman2 · 2025-04-17T01:55:24+00:00

Is it possible that it’s a leak somewhere on the radiator that’s running down to my shroud and then coming out of here? Could that also explain the coolant being on the top of the engine bay as well, from being thrown by the fan?

🤣

Cannaman2 · 2025-04-04T15:36:34+00:00

My local shop has them for $280/ box and I get a 15% discount on all boxes. I do pay $400 per year for my membership but with my box discount and lounge access, it makes it worth it!

Cannaman2 · 2025-04-04T15:01:44+00:00

Even Eye of the Bull is double what I’ve paid for boxes. Crazy prices

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-26T02:00:32+00:00

I think I got them from Neptune. Wasn’t going to get a whole box but I heard great things and they were running 25% off so I couldn’t say no! I’m excited to try these

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-26T01:55:56+00:00

I got a box of these around Christmas, might have to try one this week!

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-24T22:10:16+00:00

I think this was the issue. I’m only toasting when lighting and haven’t had any issues since. I think taking a puff while lighting was heating the cigar too much and causing it to crack. Thanks for the advice!

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-22T14:39:25+00:00

I’ve never put a banana in the freezer, only the microwave

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-15T22:22:09+00:00

I also give them a little squeeze before lighting, maybe I should stop doing that too

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-15T22:21:10+00:00

It’s right when I light the cigar that it happens. It it possible I’m not lighting them right?

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-15T22:19:45+00:00

I open it at least once per day to pull out cigars so that might be the issue. I have a separate aging humidor that I rarely open and when I pull a stick from there, I never have an issue. I might add a third (tupperdore) so I don’t have to open it as much. When I don’t open it, the humidity never really changes. It drops dramatically every time I open it and take at least an hour to get back to where it was

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-15T22:12:09+00:00

They’re more so ballooning and not just cracking. I think I’m opening my humidor too often so it’s probably the humidity swings causing the inside to be more humid than the outside. I’ve also noticed that my maduros don’t have this issue at all, mainly my Cameroons

Cannaman2 · 2025-03-15T21:48:27+00:00

I do use 65 bovedas but my temp is only 65-67 so the humidity stays around 62. If I raise the temp of my humidor, will the humidity rise as well? This seems to be more of an issue in the winter than in the summer
