If your cigars could talk, they’d ask one thing: Are you sure your hygrometer is telling the truth?
Because an uncalibrated hygrometer is just a fancy guess.
Here’s how to lock it in—simple, accurate, and worth the few minutes.
đź§‚ The Salt Test (Old School. Still the Best.)
-
Grab a small bottle cap or dish
-
Add plain table salt
-
Add a few drops of distilled water—damp, not flooded
-
Seal it with your hygrometer in an airtight container
-
Wait 6–8 hours
âś… The Truth Check
After waiting, the humidity inside should read 75%.
-
If it does → you’re good.
-
If it doesn’t → adjust your hygrometer (or note the offset).
Example:
If it reads 72%, add +3% mentally every time you check it.
🔥 Why This Matters
Proper humidity = better burn, better flavor, better draw.
Bad readings lead to dry cigars, tight pulls, or mold nightmares. None of that is luxury.
📌 Pro Tip
Recalibrate every few months—or anytime your cigars start acting funny.
Smoke smarter. Protect the leaf.
That’s how Brovas move.
