well ive already outgrown my 150ct humidor after only starting smoking less than a year ago. I just ordered a 21 bottle dual zone vinotemp but have a few questions. First i only have 3 boxes and about 50 singles and am worried that with all the empty space i will not get a stable RH and after buying the vino im pretty much tapped out so i dont see myself buying too many sticks soon. Will it be ok the way it is or should i try to get some empty boxes from the local b+m to try to fill up some space. Also how many pounds of beads will this need? i was thinking 2/3 of a pound in the bottom section and 1/3 pound in the top. will that be enough? thanks in advance for any help you guys can give

Yup, grab some empties and fill the space...

More beads will never hurt... but in that unit, 1/3 in top, and 2/3 in bottom will be fine.

Enjoy.

First congrats on the pick up of a wineadore. When I first got mine, a 28 bottle, I too was working with the same size stash. I used empty boxes from my local b&m to take up the empty space. It also helps to keep the humidity level. As you acquire more sticks you can just fill up the boxes. Quite a few of the boxes in my wineadore are just empties I picked up & refilled with my favorite sticks. Get a few different size boxes if you can to hold different size smokes down the line.
As for beads I use 2 pounds myself. The extra beads help the rh bounce back after the door is opened & shut.
