New cigar-blog
Hi, I´m separating my hobbies into two blogs.
In this one (Vanerpaddel) I keep my pictures of Foto-365, nature, family, kayak-travels and so on.
In my new blog: The Cigars of Ostergarden I´m moving all tobacco-related stuff to.
Everything from the first seed (starting with the seeds in the end of feb) to the finish cigar. I promize a lot of pictures this year. I have just started a small project to do a humidor of an old furniture, that are also documented in pictures.
So… WELCOME TO BOTH OF MY BLOGS! 🙂
Tobacco kiln update
Upgraded my “kiln” yesterday. Our full-length freeze quieted so I moved this to my workshop / outhouse. I drilled three holes for; The power unit from a computer that I use as a fan, A “cooking hob” for food, the last hole is for an extra light for the heat (does not seem to be needed). Will also install a temp sensor later, now the cable goes through the door. It´s working perfectly.
Tobacco kiln
When the hanged tobacco leaves are ready, they are moved to my simple oven made of styrofoam and a pair of bulb lamps. It will be ready after 4 weeks in 50º C .
Tobacco & Cigars
Before I make cigars and pipe tobacco, I have to test how the taste of cigars are (never smoked one). 🙂
So I bought five pieces of different descent; Cuba, Dominicana, Nicaragua, Honduras and Mexico.
