Higher temps and cigars

ZAP

Big T smokes

The way I am to understand it, mushy comes from being to humid. The main probelmw ith having high temps is that tobacco beetles hatch if they are exposed to tematures at or around 80 degrees for a few days.

I have experimented some with smoking sticks at different temps. The sponginess comes from higher relative humidity's with greater temps. I have found a couple of sticks that I like to get hot before smoking as it alters the flavor profile some. Others do not respond well.

True, if T is high,RH gotta go down!

While RH may go down, warmer air is capable of holding much more moisture.

Yes,i was saying as a rule in your humidor,if the T is high,lower your RH cause high T will hold more moisture.
