Humidor/coolerdor

Hello All,

Can Anybody Tell Me The Diffrent From The Two? (Humidor/coolerdor) When Do You Use The Coolerdor?

When Can You Buy On?

Thanks

A coolerdor is a cooler that has been converted to a humidor. A coolerdor is large and can store boxes of cigars.

so, you use it for the same purpose?

yes, the coolerdor is popular because it can store large amounts of cigars. Like the humidor, the coolerdor will also need a proper humidification device.

Great job cls515!! I usually will take 500 words to say something that can be done in ten :smiley36:

Some people like to line their coolers with spainsh cedar to help hold moisture and for the pleasant smell. I personally think this is a waste of time, money and a good cooler :smiley36:

I store my cigars in the nice, wooden boxes in my coolers. This way, it's easier to organize the cigars, the boxes retain moisture to help stabalize the humidity in the cooler AND they give you plenty of "that smell" :smiley20:

Most people use "beads" to humidify their coolerdors. They're available from HeartfeltIndustries

Also, if you DO NOT line your cooler with cedar, it can be converted to its original purpose in about three minutes (to hold BEER) which can be very important in the summer months.

Searching the word "Coolidor" I came up with this old jewel :smiley20:

The presence of beer at times can be essential to the enjoyment of a cigar or the people you are smoking with at the time.
Eventually buying boxes is a better idea after you compare the same cigar as it develops with time in proper storage. It also is important to spend money where it is most effective. Like on quality cigars instead of zebra wood inlaid 500 count humidors. IMO

Gotta love a nice looking stocked humidor though?
Nothing better than filling your humidor with nice smokes. :smiley20:

Exactly! That's why I have both. I put the cigars I plan to smoke in the relatively near future (and a few of my "special occasion" cigars for show) in my humidor. It holds about 75 cigars.
My backup inventory is kept in cedar cigar boxes in my coolidor.

Well said! :smiley20:

Do you have to treat the cooler in any way, or are the cigar boxes enough to keep the plastic smell away?

After your cigars sit in there a few days, the plastic smell goes away. It is taken over by the sweet aroma of a blend of cigars!

I just gave mine a good washing with soap and water, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
Make sure to dry it well since any remaining moisture will hang in there for a while, possibly affecting your humidification "system".
