Building new Humdor cabinet, need Humidifier

May 18, 2005 2 Replies

I'm building new humidor, should hold about 120 boxes plus 150 loose sticks in drawers. I'm looking install an auto electronic humidifier system that can handle a 5'x3'x'3 size cabinet. Any ideas?



Thanks


Ask in alt.smokers.cigars Lots of humidor building knowledge in there, even for these big humidors.

On the whole though, I wouldn't bother. Use simple 50% propylene glycol as a humectant and let equilibrium chemistry keep the humidity correct. Monitor it electronically if you like, but unless this is a shop humidor with a large _turnover_ in contents, then once the humdity is correct, it will stay stable. Big ones are even more stable than small ones, so long as the humidifier is large enough.
