70% vs 75%

75 is WAY too high......end of discussion......most cigars today do better at 62-65.....

I think your hygrometer needs calibrating.

I prefer to stay below 70 and right around 65. YMMV of course.

+1??? YMMV??? You sound like a FW user :).

There fine, I would regulate it back down to 65-70% though.

What's an FW user?

I thought those were simple acronyms and usages from about all internet boards.....this isn't the only one I frequent.

+1 = To agree with someone

YMMV = Your Mileage May Vary (i.e. it may be different in your case, but this is what works for me)

Actually I thought +1 was used in a thread which the +1er thought was pointless. Offended from the uselessness of the post they declare, out of spite, to get "+1 to their post count". I'm not talking about this post by the way.

I smoke cubans every day and I keep my humi's at around 70-75%. I had a spike this summer also where I didn't add any water for almost two months and my humidity was around 78% too All my cigars smoked fine. I prefer at least 70%.

I've been getting fluctuations recently, between 68 and 70%, thing is we are just enreting the colder months, and I think it is due to the temprature change, an effect of relative versus absolute humidity. Cigars still smoke fine though.
