Can I lay the Bóveda packets directly on top of my cigars?
Yes. Unlike all refillable humidifiers, Bóveda can be placed directly in contact with your cigars without any risk to them whatsoever. And since Bóveda emits the cleanest, most purified water-vapor available, and since they will only emit the perfect amount of water-vapor—not too much and not too little—the cigars that are in direct contact will never get over-humidified.

Do I need to activate the Bóveda packets?
No. Bóveda packets are ready to use when you receive them. All you need to do is take each Bóveda packet out of the clear over-wrap and simply place them inside your desktop humidor and you’re done. That's right, there’s absolutely no work or effort required on your part. By using Bóveda, you don’t have to adjust any valves or try to figure out if you’ve put in too much or not enough water, and you never have to fill or refill your device with water again—ever.

What RH level should I choose?
Choosing the correct Bóveda RH level depends on two factors—(1) the effectiveness of your humidor, and (2) your own personal taste. If you smoke cigars from different countries of origin, our recommendation is to maintain your humidor at 68 to 69%, as this will be a very good level for all types of cigars and blends. Therefore, in order to compensate for the rate of moisture loss that occurs in wood humidors, you will need to choose the Bóveda 72% just to maintain the desired level of 68 to 69%. In non-wood humidors, on the other hand, such as hard plastic or Tupperware, the Bóveda packets will maintain the RH at exactly the level stated on the front of each packet.

How often do I need to replace the Bóveda packets?
As a general rule, every 2-months. To make it easy for you, we’ll automatically mail you the appropriate number of Bóveda packets for your humidor every 2-months so you’ll never have to worry about remembering when to replace them or worry about running out. Each shipment is your built-in reminder to throw out the old and insert the new.
