flavoring your beads...

[Diesel Grinch]

TABASCO SAUCE for the spicy full flavor taste.

[MMAB]

No offense....I'm sure that the beads work great.

I've just had good luck with florist foam and recently "Soil Moist" with distilled water and PG. Its that polymer stuff used to retain water in potting soil. $2.99 for a small bag at WalMart and half of it fills my Cigar Oasis Extended unit.

The beads just seem awfully pricey.

I spray my beads with a little Southern Comfort 100 proof.... damn that makes for a good smoke

[heftysmokes]

Astroglide!
Oh wait, that's not for flavoring smokes...nevermind.

When I wake up in the morning, first thing, I go outside and spray myself with the garden hose. Then I fire up that first stogie of the day and stand in the middle of the back yard and drip dry as the sun comes up. It gets a little dicey in the winter, but it always makes me feel real grateful for . . . well, for having running water. And the neighbor gets a kick out of it.

Ohhhh, I get it. It was a joke.

I use Low-Tox Antifreeze and Sprite. Keeps em moist and I love that citrus flavor.

I played around with the Soil Moist stuff a while back, it grew mold real fast. I guess I neglected to add the PG, but with in 2 weeks it had black mold growing all over the top of it.

I ended up buying a 7 pound jug of silica cat litter beads and conditioning them myself. They work like a champ.

how did you condition them?

[hex1848]

I get the ExquisiCat beads at Pets Mart, fill up a nylon stocking with them, and place them in an air tight Tupperware box with a bowl of water and a digital hygrometer for a week or two (wait till the hygrometer gets to ~70%).

I made my first batch about 2 months ago and use ~2lbs per 150 quart Igloo Cooler. I check every day or two and the humidity remains at ~68%. I haven’t had to refresh them yet, but all you have to do is add a water source for a couple of days when they start slacking.

I flavor my beads with a nice marinara sauce. Makes the beads spicy, peppy, and ready to get the job done! My cigars come out zesty and full of life....maron!

Fogettabout anything else.
