In full disclosure, I am a General Manager for a cigar shop. I have been using these for 4 or 5 years, plus the larger IRIS USA 3 Pack 60 Quart WeatherPro as well. I check on the Boveda packs bi-weekly and they tend to last almost a year. I still go with 1 Boveda per 20 or 30 cigars, and I have never had issues. I also tend to use 62 (for long-term, i.e. several years) and 65% if I am actively smoking from the humidor. I save the 69% and 72% for my wood humidors. In most of my "stick" humidors, I use Similar Spanish cedar trays and those exact hygrometers. (I have the WIFI version for the shop and Bluetooth for home). I set up two different accounts to keep the humidors organized separately. All around this is a great video for those who are looking to upgrade their home storage.

I agree 100 percent. I have the exact same Tupperware you use in the video. I have Spanish cedar humidors as well. The boveda packs really do last so much longer in the Tupperware compared to a normal humidor.
@DJ-Art-Morris10 ай бұрын
Thanks for the video goodsir. In a few ways I wish this video had been around a couple years ago when i put it all together but for one or two reasons I’m kinda glad it wasn’t and I’ll explain. I’ve got a collection of tups and humidors all my tups are comprised of both the sistema’s you have with those same exact trays and and i also have several of the glass Rubbermaid brilliance’s you mentioned with their bottoms being lined with 1/4” Spanish cedar boards throughout. Yesterday my order of 62&65 boveda’s came in and i got the 62’s for my tups and the 65’s for my non-airtight storages switched them all down from 69’s been having nothing but problems with the 69’s and i think you’re probably spot on with that remark in the video that’s one of the main reasons why i wish this video had been around when i first started collecting. That probably could’ve saved Me a lot of time and frustration with hoping the 69’s would ever work out. I’m excited to see how the lower rh will improve my smoke straight out the tups with minimal rest in the smoking environment pre-light. As to why I’m kind of glad this video wasn’t around. There’s just one or two things I don’t agree on with what you said. First, You don’t need to season a humidor or a tup just because you’re throwing Spanish cedar in, at least not in the way you’d typically think of seasoning anyway. It is something that seems very straightforward but it can be messed up and just lead to more headache than it’s worth. If you want to avoid any potential for the cedar pulling the moisture from your cigars just put the desired boveda rh you want your cigars to store at in there by itself with with a calibrated hygrometer and the trays or Spanish cedar boards before putting any cigars in there with them. Now just wait for the rh to get where its supposed to be and give it an extra day or two just to make sure it’s stable. Boom now you have your Spanish cedar acclimated and you don’t have to worry about any potential headaches that can come from seasoning like runaway humidity/mold ect. Secondly about the number of boveda packs required i don’t know if boveda is just trying to line their pockets or they just think everyone has a terribly leaky humidor but their estimates always seem way higher than necessary especially if your using a tup it, and maybe boveda hasn’t taken the airtight nature of tupsinto consideration at all idk. That being said In the couple years I’ve had this set-up they’ve only ever required one size 60 between the trays right on top of the lower tray in the middle where the dip is cut out of the divider. I don’t think until now that i just switched them out for the 62’s that I’ve ever had to replace a single one because it dried out. So don’t waste money on more than one size 60 boveda per tups of these sizes. I do agree that these trays are perfect fit for the sistema’s and a huge upgrade also its great that it gives you plenty of air space even when the trays are completely full. Overall i did really enjoy your video and I’m going to sub🙌🏼. Just wanted to share what i could and maybe it can help.

You can bring back bovada packs. Just put your dried packs in a large ziplock bag with paper towel that are lightly damp. They will gradually soak up the moisture after re damping the paper towel about 3 times in a few weeks you have completely restored bovada packs. I’ve literally brought back the same packs about 3 times before they start breaking down. It saves a ton of money as the packs aren’t cheap but they are the only thing I trust in my humidors. I gave up on glycol/crystals solution long ago

If you can give your opinion if main goal is to rehydrate should use 65% or 69%?
@sigmanado11 ай бұрын
To rehydrate dry cigars you need to go up in humidity slowly over a few weeks. Otherwise they will crack and damage from quick RH jumps. If you can start as low as 58rh for 2 weeks > 62 rh 2 weeks > 65 rh 2 weeks. 65RH is the highest I would go that’s good for storage.
@MrGoblue11317 ай бұрын
I think the area of the country you live in, and current season, greatly effects the daily RH also from hearing what different people in different locations say. I'm in Ohio and we get every bit of the four seasons. In summer (very humid here) I'm going with 62% and in winter (dry) I go with 72%. Doing this is getting at about 67% in my wood humidor continuously. The tupperdore is much easier to maintain as your saying and stays closer to my original Bovida %.

New world 70 percent is fine. 70 is fine for Cubans but I would take your Cuban out 8 hours before smoking to dry it out a bit. - if you store at 70

Almost all reviewers of these Sistema are using/showing the 7l (236 oz) version. What could be the reasons why nobody seems to use the larger 9.6l (338 oz) version, especially when they have so many cigars to store like you do? The larger boxes are even 10 dollar cheaper on Amazon where I live because everyone seems to be buying the smaller version because of the general recommendation LOL. You would think that it's more convenient to have less tupperware and it looks less messy in your room without all these (cheap looking) plastic boxes laying around. The first one is: L 355mm x H 120mm x W 235mm the larger one: L 357mm x H 160mm x W 260mm. In the first one you can stack 3X 10 cigar boxes which are 3,2 cm in height. In the larger Sitema you can stash 5 boxes. Personally, I prefer to keep the cigars in the original boxes unless someone could give good arguments that the wooden boxes somehow mess up the boveda/humidity/cigars in the tupperdor.

Way too moist. Have multiple air tight gasket storage tubs filled with whole boxes of cigars and did 69% rh boveda packs and they always came out too humidified. Burn issues was a problem but a bigger problem would've been mold.

Just found a 100 count humidor on Amazon for $150. It includes hydrometer, water tank, fan, led lighting, and Spanish cedar lining with drawers. Tupperware humidors just aren't worth the extra effort. No b-packs needed

Why is 69% boveda bad?
@sigmanado Жыл бұрын
It has its uses in other style humidors. For this setup specifically it’s too high because it’s airtight.

it's amazing to see millennial kids talking about putting cigars in tupperware. If you can't buy at least one cedar humidor that holds 25 cigars then you shouldn't be smoking cigars. Really, you don't have to spend $300 dollars on a humidor you can get any budget cedar humidor at any cigar shop for $50 dollars and that is the cost of 5 decent cigars unless you buy white owls at a gas station. Seriously, I don't know anyone who smokes cigars that doesn't have at least one cedar humidor, one small travel humidor that holds between 3 and 15 sticks, a cuter, lighter and a carry case. Stealing your moms tupperware is what a loser does.

he has cedar shelves in the tupperware. it’s scientifically a better option. if you’re spending less than $300 on a humidor, it probably doesn’t work that well, especially over long periods of time. there are fine working humidors out there but they are 1.expensive 2.mostly a statement piece, because they look more appealing 3. of a concept that was invented before tupperware was…

@@swampsquanch thank God they charge a ridiculous amount of money for the lounges I go to. This keeps out booger eating kids with plastic Tupperware they stole from Mommy. Lol... Since none of them own a house, I don't have to worry about them moving in next to me. 👍
