What media do you use to regulate RH?

If it's something like litter or beads, is it too wet?

If they can't or won't absorb anymore water (possibly releasing it), moisture might be building in the humidor as it will have nowhere to go.

I think is what bit me in behind when mold popped up on a couple of cigars for me. I threw my litter into the oven for a bit and back into the humidor, it dropped the RH back to 66-65% and no more excess moisture.

I use several pounds of HF beads distributed from top to bottom. Usually if RH starts to creep up I take all the beads out and throw them in the oven and a day later everything is perfect again. I only noticed the water by a fluke chance of just checking in the back by the fan. I was shocked to feel water there. There has never been more than a few drops before. I will check the beads for saturation tonight but I just baked them about 2 months ago. Maybe I somehow just mysteriously developed a major leak.
