cigars going out

[rlaliberty]

so, the past three smokes ive had have all gone out more than once while smoking. they were a taboo value line, macanudo gold label, and a lvh early years silencio. my cooler is hovering at 69 right now. any idea what the deal is?

Are you smoking too slow? If not, you could drop your humidity to 65%.

[rlaliberty]

def not smoking too slow. tend to be smoking too fast actually. i have 65% beads but they have been reading at 68 lately and i salt tested & everything. should be dead at 65.

How often are you taking a puff? Are you smoking inside or out? Are there any other burn issues other then the outage i.e. tunneling, canoeing, etc.?

[tccigar]

I assume your hygrometer is digital?

[rlaliberty]

digital hygro, smoking outdoors, and seemingly no other burn issues minus some unevenness but i think i can attribute that to myself.

Pay more attention to the cigar. How you are holding it ect. Learn how to read your cigar, and how it is smoking.
I smoke with a friend once a week and he has the same problem. He holds his cigar pointing down and with all the blah blah blah that he spouts it is no wonder that he has to re-light his cigar two or three times while he is smoking it. I have mentioned it to him on numerous occasions that it is the way that he is holding his cigar but he just does not get it.
Be one with your cigar grasshopper.

I never even thought of that. I always point down! I'll keep that in mind for when it stops raining

thanks

Not trying to be a dick. But from the cigars you mentioned. I'd say the issue is




Cheap cigars.




Really what do you expect?

[rlaliberty]

Legend, I would normally agree on that. However, for the taboo and LVH, those were the first i had that did that out of the maybe 15 ive had so far. seems odd that theyd happen back to back like that for the first time.

Funny that others don't have burn issues with these cigars.
