Rearranging Humidors

sikk50 · 12-07-2011, 10:55 AM

Just wondering? Do any of you rearrange your humidors from time to time so that you don't allow one cigar to sit in the same spot for too long??

I rearrange like once a week because I have a problem.

I tried to make a poll, but I never can figure it out on this site. Oh well

Sounds more like you do not have enough sticks. I go through my singles maybe once every six months, everything that came in a box stays that way, maybe I take a look at them.

I'll do it when necessary to make more efficient use of space, but that's about it.

I have both my humis (150ct & 20ct) in my trunkador, no boxes, and I just go through my humis looking for a smoke, so I guess I rearrange my sticks all the time lol.

I rearrange them periodically but mostly as part of finding out what's at the bottom that I may (in fact have) forgotten about

I have a pretty small humi that gets disorganized easily when I dig through for a stick. I reorganize probably once a week mostly to make efficient use of space because I use all of the space and want to make sure that the lid doesn't squish any of the sticks.

I rearrange my singles drawers every couple months. My singles are stacked 3 and 4 tall so I rotate them down to make sure cigars aren't left in the middle of the pile for too long where they'll be unexposed to the air flow generated by the recirculation fans. Boxed cigars stay in their boxes, although I do take them out to give a quick inspection to ensure nothing nasty like mold or beetles is breeding in the dark. I generally don't bother to rotate the boxes around in the cabinet since the air recirculation leaves a less than 1%RH difference between the top and bottom of my humidor.

Only when I am reorganizing. I find I'll reorganize my stash every 4-6 months because I've bought boxes and just thrown it on top of everything, received random 5'ers from purchases or bombs, and smoked down boxes that can be consolidated or moved to my drawers instead of taking up space. When I do I'm always very happy at how easy it is to access stuff and then soon afterwards the humidors are all cluttered again

I just went through my entire stash last night while filling my edgestar. Too much work. And, I will have to do it again when I get some drawers/shelves for it.
