Admittedly, we have received a lot of criticism for this belief in the video above. Nevertheless, we believe that recharging isn’t worth the risk given their value for money and their overall affordability compared to the value of your cigars. This particular humidity level isn’t just good for wooden humidors but is also recommended for seasoning musical instrument cases. However, this isn’t particularly relevant.

Use (1) Boveda Size 60 for every 25 TOTAL cigars your humidor can hold. Example: For a 100-cigar capacity humidor, use four (4) Size 60 Boveda at once. There are two versions available that are either 75% or 32% RH. You can use the 75% on its own, which will provide to 2.5% accuracy. Meanwhile, you can do the two-point calibration process where you also use the 32%, which brings it to 1.5% accuracy.

Firstly, Boveda produce the only affordable device that offers two-way humidification thanks to the aforementioned permeable “reverse osmosis” membrane. However, we wouldn’t usually recommend smoking them at this level. While some people do and it’s a matter of personal preference, we will instead acclimate them to a higher RH level beforehand.

Bóveda provides the cleanest and most purified humidity of all other products available on the market today. Bóveda is allowing consumers, for the first time, to properly maintain and age their cigars in their own home and at their desired level of relative humidity (RH). Designed for your inexpensive or glass top humidors. The 75% accommodates a high amount of moisture loss allowing the humidor to maintain a high 60s RH level. This special membrane allows Boveda to provide 2-way humidity control for cigars. Boveda compensates for the atmosphere inside your humidor. Whenever water vapour is needed, Boveda releases the cleanest and most purified humidity. Whenever there’s too much moisture in your humidor, Boveda absorbs the excess.

How To Modify A Humidor To Use Boveda

is the most optimal and ideal humidity for a cigar. A cigar will in no way suffer from being at this humidity. Right out of the humidor, your cigars will be ready to be smoked and will burn perfectly till the end. In my experience, tightly rolled cigars will have the same burn issues that a 69% cigar will have near the end. So dry boxing for a few hours before smoking is suggested. Consequently, many cigar enthusiasts will regularly rotate their cigars inside the humidity and move them around to ensure that they receive similar amounts of humidity. However, it’s more of an art than a science and it can be easy to make mistakes even with experience. To be perfectly honest, you don’t actually need to do anything to begin using Boveda in your humidor. As described above, the product was designed to be simple and without any inconveniences.
