I watched the video and it was helpful. I take it the yellowish beans are those that are opaque and hydrated; the clear the non-hydrated?

No problem at all.

Well the smaller tube contains fresh (just a week ago) beads whereas the bigger tube is a year old or so. After the cigars have been in your humidor for a long time they start to change color from the cedar, ammonia, etc. It is perfectly normal and the only thing that changes is the color. When a bead is wet it turns clear and when it is dry it is a white color.
