I've been thinking about this very thing a lot lately. I'll be needing temp control
to protect my smokes while I'm away in SF. I'll probably use a cigar oasis in there
but should I also install a PC fan or two for circulation :?:
Would it have to be "burped" as with a coolerdor :?:

Young hearts, young dreams, and when it comes to dreams of being a chef, how could I not be encouraging? You've got a fan forever. And no need to send the pictures although I won't refuse it if you do. Just one post of the lead Alco would be nice enough. :dunno: :sm_angel:

I am sure the Oasis would work.
If it was me I'd keep the boxes off the bottom & put as much cedar in there as possible.
Also if you follow the link & do a search you'll find a lot more info
on coolers there.
Hmm, Napa for wine tasting - I think I can help :idea:

You might want to look at Sams/Costco/BJ's warehouse clubs --- I bought 2 24 bottle wine cellars at our local Sams for under $250. Only problem I have is I am a white wine drinker and my darn children keep hitting the buttons on the coolers turning them from White to Red (45 Degrees vs. 55 Degrees). Last week I had to quick chill some Gewertztraminer because it was at 56 Degrees and that is to warm for best flavor.
i dont get this, how can you use a unit like this to store cigars? wouldnt the cooler take the moisture out of the air? maybe not, i dont know
standard fridges will take the moisture out because they have the defroster, etc. Wine coolers do not because you actually want some sort of humidity around your wine. They use a different type of cooling system than a fridge does.
at least that is what i have gathered from other explinations i have read.
