Best way to use beads in your Cooler?
Currently I have a disposable Glad Tupperware thing, sized for a side dish for your lunch.
Anyways I put almost a half pound in there and it just sits on top of a box in the center, about 6 inches down from the top. It seems ineficient. the container has about 1.5" of beads. For the first 2 weeks the humidity was 76% (70% beads) it seemed they were not working, there are still white beads ?!?!? I also put a old style humidifer that came with my 250Stick Humdidor, with 100% distilled H20 added to the credo. still the beads stayed white? anyways, Baltmore is one of the most humid places in america north of the south. I would bet my bedroom is 80% RH during the summer and now 60%. ------------ So what do you think is the best way to distribuite beads in my humidor? I am thinking of buying lots of tubes, and putting a tube in every box, I dont understand how the humid air will permeate the boxes, especially ones with glossy wood I am also thinking of putting the 1 oz tubes at each corner of the cooler too. Remember I have a square IGLOO "CUBE" 60 qt. I am about to buy a 120 Qt Igloo long style the 60 quart is 22$ and the 120 qt is 40$ respectivly I also have an electron CIGAR OASIS, which I stupidly bought for my 250 stick humidor. I didnt know that where I live you fight to keep the humidity down 6 months of the year. thanks for all input
