Can Heartfelt beads be in contact with sticks?

[Cigarbear]

I just got a pound of beads for my humis and was planning on just sticking them in hose or a small tupperware. Space is tight and it seems the volume would mean the sticks would be directly against or on top of any container I use. If I go with hose, can they be in direct contact? It seems no but not sure. What about on top of a thin tupperware with holes for ventilation?

I would say no.

The Tupperware idea is best, use the small disposable ones, you can drill holes in the top and around the rim. You'll probably want to drill either fairly large holes, or a lot of smaller ones.

Another option is the tubes sold at heartfelt, they're available in several sized, and fit in the space of a couple cigars.

I have a few of those tubes with that gel stuff. I also have two small jars of the same stuff that I'm currently using in my big humis. Can I just reuse those if they're well cleaned or could that be an issue? The tubes are sealed but I'm sure I could pop one end open and rig up a top of some sort.
