Not anything special, but it's mine. Pretty standard coolidor. I got some empty cedar cigar boxes and cut the lids off so I can see what is in each without opening them. 1/2 lb of 65% Heartfelt beads. I spray the inside of the lid (not the cigars) with distilled water on occasion to keep the humidity up. It's pretty solid for RH.

Chuck, I am building a 121 Wino for my son (I think that's what you have here), what are you using for to keep your rh ballanced. With limited space, I an not sure the Kitty Litter I use in mine will be a good option.

It's the Newair 181. It makes me be frugal with purchases. Has worked quite well so far. Has only been full to the brim once.

I feel like during my first month 'probation' period, it wont let me post pictures. I use the image button and post the link but it just comes up with a photo that wont load.

I had the same challenge with the learning curve. You hav to first hit the "Upload a File" button, then after it uploads, you can hit the little camera to pull it into the post.

Glad to see this thread still going and all the awesome setups you guys have. I still need to setup my second wineador cause the first one doesn't want to hold RH anymore.

And I know everybody is eyeing those guantanamera cristales sitting there right @herfdog ;)

If you really want guantanamera cristales, I can get them at convenience stores and some gas stations...

But for some reason everyone brings some of them back from their cuban vacations, sometimes with cohibas, and sometimes the cohibas are real.

but I rather get them ryj tubos at that price. Or montey open junior tubos for twice the price. They make a decent short smoke.

It has to be the seal, I've tried everything else and nothing seems to work. I tried ordering a new one from the factory but no one can seem to find the part number for it. The drain hole isn't plugged but I have a hose on the back end of it that drains into a jar in the back so that I don't loose RH but it's still getting out somewhere.

So please tell us Jesse. Has your drain hole been tapped?

Try this. Get some electrical tape and tape (don't tap,) the drain hole at the bottom of the unit. That's probably where your losing or gaining your moisture from. Having a tube at the back to a jar is only going to allow the outside RH and the inside rh to co mingle.

Next question are you using heartfelt beads or kitty litter for RH balance? And how much?

Sorry I have strayed from the topic. Pm me if you would like to trouble shoot your wineador before you toss it.
