    I've been monitoring this thread and I think I'm beginning to understand the concept of resting or downtime as the case may be. Now, I'm putting together a wineador and will at some point soon transfer many cigars from a desk top humidor that stays at about 66% and 72° (though the temperature does vary some). The wineador is holding at 66° and about 66% rh. I understand that cooler air can hold let moisture than warmer air and that the moisture level of the cigars will be (some measure) less at 66° than at 72° given the same rh. First question: Am I being a picker of nits? Second question: If not, should the resting period be started over after the cigars are transferred?
    Thanks!

    Nits are gross. You should pick any nit you see.
    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
