Just bought a vinotemp humidor, now what

[tprice]

I bought one of the Vinotemp humidors online and it was delivered to my office yesterday.

I have plugged it in and set temp at 56 for now and just letting in acclimate.

I assume that I need to condition it like my regular humidor as far as humidity.

Anything else I need to know, it did not have any instrucitons with it

56degrees is too low, you will have a hard time seasoning. Increase to 66degrees and season as normal, using a Boveda kit or your method of choice.

throw some empty cedar boxes in there while getting the humidity up. it will help with the plastic smell

Thanks, I was wondering about that

As for the temp I just lowered it to see how well it worked

Along with the cedar boxes tape off the drain hole in the rear with electrical tape and put your prefered type of beads in there. Get a hygrometer from Wally World set the temp on 66 and let her go for bit. I keep my boxes stacked on 2 of the shelves for the time being. Got some drawers coming from one of the guys that makes them here on the board.
