Shauns Sticks

Looking very nice!

I recently bought a 28bottle wine cooler to use as a humidor. Got some sapele wood to make shelves and a singles tray. As it was to go in the house not the garage it had to look ok so that ruled out anything massive. I originally wanted a cabinet to convert but being a modern house it gets a little warm in summertime. Controlling it using an STC1000 temperature controller rather than the inbuilt thermostat which would be unreliable at best.


Problem being im already nearly full..

Singles tray

The collection is looking impressive. Nice additions.

Lovely additions indeed. The singles tray alone is mighty impressive.

Beautiful setup! Nice pics of the new sticks too.

Of course there's always an easy solution to a full humidor...

Nice Shaun. Very nice!

Super pictures and a a very nice looking glass windowed setup. I'd guess "nearly full" isn't the worst scenario in the world, and it seems to happen with these things (hard drives, book cases, wine racks, regardless of initial size, will always be nearly full in a similar time).

I can't say I've ever had a BBF (though they look splendid), but I'm a definite Vegueros Mana?ita fan, and just seeing the picture is making my mouth water.

I hope planning an annex to your storage goes well.

I made the tray myself using sapele wood.

Hey Sean, love the look of those BBFs, shiny and dark but also hinting at being slightly toothy.

What's the reason for the temperature control unit? is it wired into the fridge heating/cooling unit?

You plug the fridge itself into the temperature controller and place a temperature probe inside the fridge. The fridge will then only switch on when the temperature deviates by 1f from the setpoint. Otherwise there is large swings in temperature because of overshoot which leads to swinging humidity... the built in thermostats are crap basically. The controllers are only about ?8 and a bit of electrical wiring needed. I use them on my fishtank already but for heating as well.

Anytime these fridges are actively cooling the humidity inside is driven down so keeping it to a minimum helps avoid swinging RH levels. Probably overkill lol

Very nice collection of cigars, Shaun, enjoy smoking them in time.
