Humidor for Cigars - A Guide Humidor_for_Cigars__A_Guide | Seite 2

Tip #1: The humidifier must be filled with either distilled water or any of the humidifier liquids that are on
offer in the market. Two precautions that must be taken are- firstly, it shouldn’t be overfilled. Secondly,
tap water must not be used under any circumstances because it contains certain minerals that can impart
an unpleasant smell to the cigars, and also clog the humidifier element. Humidifier must be drained of
excess water on a paper towel for about 45 minutes before placing it into its suitable place in the humidor.
This seasons the interior to recognize your cigars.
Tip #2: a lint free cloth slightly moist with distilled water should be used to wipe the humidifier. This helps
to gather residue accumulated during manufacturing process and also allows for the interior to allow
specific quantity of moisture. Otherwise the dry wood might absorb moisture out of the cigars or
humidifier. The outside may only be cleaned with a soft cloth and never furniture polish. , it will fade the
finish and do damage to the cigars as well.
The Mighty Myth: the biggest myth about humidors is that the box itself must be made of solid wood.
Most consumers are thrilled to say their humidor is made of solid cedar wood. But there's a problem with
solid wood down the road: warping. In the entire history of wood making, you cannot keep solid wood
from eventually warping. The best humidors are made from a special engineered wood.
Buying a humidor means taking a few necessary steps in order to prepare for storing cigars in it. Or else
the dry cedar wood lining can rob the cigars of humidity.
Adorini humidors are obtainable in two equipment alternatives. The basic or “standard” equipment
comprises of a simple hygrometer along with metal spring and a sponge-based humidifier with a
propylene glycol humidifying solution. The deluxe or “premium” equipment, however, consists of the
exact adorini hair hygrometer along with the adorini premium deluxe humidifier that is based on acryl
polymers.
This particular step is redundant if one has already
bought the adorini hair hygrometer. The adorini
hair hygrometer is available calibrated from
beforehand and necessity for re-calibration arises
only if there is shock suffered while being
transported.
