Yes, Yes I know search is my friend :mn but I couldn't find exactly the info I was looking for.
I recently purchased a VinoTemp VT24G 24 Bottle Countertop Wine Cooler off of Epay. I plan on using it for storing my premium cigars and cabs All items will be in their box
I have been running it the last couple of days to test the temp and rh before filling it. The temp is running around 60F to 61F rather consistently and the humidity stays steady (haven't put beads in yet so it has stayed consistantly at a rh of 20).
The main question I have is will the 60 to 61 degrees temp hurt the cigars or hinder their aging? I would like to avoid purchasing a temp controller if I am able to. All the posts I found recommend 65 but I didn't see a reason for that temp.
Also, I have a couple pounds of 65 beads. Should I also use an oasis xl, or would that be overkill.
Thanks for the help
