Common questions

How many Boveda packs do I need for my humidor?

Boveda's published guide is one 60-gram pack for every 25 cigars of humidor capacity, so a 50-count humidor needs two.

Which humidity should I choose, 65%, 69% or 72%?

Most smokers use 65% or 69%. Lower humidity tends to give an easier burn; higher keeps cigars plumper. Pick one and stay consistent.

How do I know when to replace a humidity pack?

Two-way packs go stiff and crunchy as they dry out. Replace them when they no longer feel soft.
