CI's Cigar Juice

[jxpfeer]

Anyone use the stuff from Cigarsinternational? I bought a bottle of their CigarJuice with my last order, and i'm trying it in my humidors now. so far seems to be pretty good. it's supposed to keep your humidor at exactly 70% rh. I've been running it a couple days now and no significant changes in my humi. of course, it was already at about 68% and the rh of my house has been fluctuating between 65 and 70.

just curious if anyone else out there has used it. at 7.95 a bottle, seems to be a decent and affordable way to humidify.

Yeah, it worked fine on those foam filled humidifiers that come with most humidors. I switched to the beads that everyone is always posting about recently, and I love 'em. They keep the cigars much better, and only distilled H2O needs to be added to them... they might be a little more expensive up front, but in the medium to long run they'll be cheaper and your cigars will be better, too!

Beads are cheaper in the long run. A pound of beads at viper's site (forget the URL) is like $29 + s/h ($18 for half a pound). Or go to cigarmony.com and get The Puck (made of beads too). They will last as long as you use distilled water only (and at like $1 per gallon for distilled water from your grocery store, that's hardly anything). You can't have too many beads, _and_ they suck moisture out of the air if the RH gets too high (say a real rainy day comes by and increases the humidity in your house).

Why get something that you have to buy again, and something that will only add humidity? Beads regulate and shouldn't need replaced.

i was planning on getting the puck, but since i already had the foam ones in my humis, i thought i'd give a bottle of this a try. i'm not really worried about the cost of distilled water that's what i've been using until just now.

I use the Puck in my 32ct Travel humi. It works perfect.

You may want to think about getting one for a worry free humidor.

I was told by people at the cigar store not to use the juice but every 6 months to recharge or just a cap full at recharge and then distilled water to top it off. It's not good to put that much pg into the foam or it will not work properly.
