Humidor in my Wine Cellar

I'm in the process of setting up my first humidor. Its an oak humi lined with spanish cedar. It's currently registering 70% humidity so thats good, but I can't find anywhere to put it in my house that is around 70 degrees. It typically is 78 degrees ambient. I live in Tex so can't afford the big a/c bills. Can I place my entire humidor in a wine cellar which is set at 60 degrees? I think if i do this it should still keep the humidity correctly at the lower temperature. Appreciate the comments/ideas.

Re: Humidor in my Wine Cellar

Welcome.

There is a thread here somewhere that explains the effect of tempurature to RH. I will see if I can find it & pull it up for you.

Anyone remember this thread & what forum it was in? I seem to be having trouble finding it.

Got a friend who likes the occassional (ISOM) cigar that for simplicity stores them in his wine cellar at 60/60. They smoke just fine to me.
