Well you don't have many flavored cigars so it wouldn't take much at all but err on the side of putting too many in as you can't really have too few. In fact (f.y.i.) must folks seem to double up on the amount needed because more beads = better humidity contol but more beads = less room too. If it is just a couple of sticks, a gatoraide(sp) bottle cap full with 60% beads white and the rest clear with water should do. You may want to try putting a couple teaspoons full in a panty hose or cheesecloth so its less messy.
