Maintaining cigar humidor is necessary: 

In order to maintain the things we love, there are certain maintenance strategies. If we love flowers, we should be tending them and garden well. If we are fond of long drives in our car, we should maintain it and change the oil and make it storm proof. The same applies for the cigar humidor. Nothing, remember, nothing is going to last forever without proper maintenance and care. All the investments are sure to turn into disappointments without care and maintenance. It is good that the cigar hobbyists have the tendency to understand how to keep the humidors working rightly. This is especially possible when these are so expensive. It is difficult when you have a humidor bought from the market which is beautiful and pricey as well. But you will have trouble in working with it, since it lacks the instructions of how to season it. 

What it is supposed to do:

The seasoning of a humidor is necessary and also crucial. It is to ensure that the beautiful humidor functions well irrespective of its price or its appearance. The humidor insides are usually lined with the Spanish cedar or the mahogany wood. There is a reason why these trees are used in this. The purpose of the humidity is to hold humidity and that too in the best manner. And these two woods are known to have anti-fungal qualities and these resist mold. The wood is dried well and is you tend to fill the humidification device regularly then the kiln dried part of the inside, i.e., the dried wood is going to absorb the moisture. These are designed to take care of your Cigares Bruxelles. Thus these are just perfect for you. Now such a device, a humidor needs to be taken care of really and we strongly tell you to do so.

In order to take care of these humidors, you need to have distilled water and also a new sponge. The distilled water should be used in this in order to prevent the buildup of the humidification device. If the sponge is saturated then it will be used for wiping down the interior wood, and every part of the wood will be cleaned with the wet sponge. Clean all the interior part of the wood well and do so generously. Now after this, fill the humidification device once more and then saturate the sponge again. Take the sponge then and now place inside the humidor to close the lid. Keep it like that for the nest 24 hours. Now take the sponge out to wipe down the wood again. After this refill the humidor and now finally the humidor is seasoned completely. 

And this is how the passive humidor consisting of a passive device for humidification works. The Spanish cedar is then going to retain the humidity and the moisture in the wood will be constantly replenished. So you only need to be sure that your humidor works and for that you need to season it well. This is how the CiagreBruxelles stay perfect inside the humidor.
