How to Set Up a Small Airtight Boveda Humidor

Quick Answer

To set up a small airtight Boveda humidor, simply place your Boveda humidity pack inside a sealed container like the Small Airtight Boveda Storage Humidor — no seasoning or water needed.

Setup Steps

1. 1. Prepare the Container: Wash the Small Airtight Boveda Storage Humidor container with mild soap and warm water, then dry thoroughly. Do not use any seasoning or water inside. Common mistake: adding water or seasoning to an airtight container — Boveda packs regulate humidity on their own.
2. 2. Insert the Boveda Pack: Open your Boveda humidity control pack and place it inside the container. For best airflow, attach it to the lid using the Boveda Wooden Holder (Holds 4) with its magnetic mounting plate. If you skip the holder, the pack can rest on the bottom, but it may touch your items directly.
3. 3. Add Your Cigars or Cannabis: Place your cigars or cannabis into the container, leaving a small gap for air circulation. Close the lid firmly until you hear the gasket seal. Checkpoint: ensure the lid is fully sealed — any gap will cause humidity drift.
4. 4. Monitor and Wait: Wait 24-48 hours for the humidity to stabilize. Use a hygrometer to verify the RH level matches your Boveda pack's rating. No additional seasoning is required. Common mistake: opening the container too often during stabilization — each opening resets the clock.
