I have been smoking cigars for a couple years but just recently bought a humidor and started buying in quantity. The past couple weeks I have noticed that the RH in my humidor has been around 70-72% without a credo having been in the box for about a month. Short of a wine cooler, what is the best way to bring down the humidity to around 65% given the high ambient humidity (I live in NOLA)?
Also, as punch listed in a recent post, both Cuban temperature and humidity is often considerably higher than what most people claim is appropriate to store cigars. How does this affect the cigars? What about beetles?
I'm probably just paranoid but I'm getting a little concerned as the temperatures and humidity down here work up to their summer levels. Thanks in advance for any help.
