What Is The Boveda Butler? Boveda's Rob Gagner Explains
Boveda partnered with another company in order to develop a digital hygrometer that links to your phone.
The phone app works with both Android and iOS, and has no subscription fees. At only $20, the Butler is a great deal, and also comes with a calibration kit.
In the app, you can name and set pictures for each Butler-connected humidor. Besides this, there are notes sections to put in as much information as you need.
The calibration kit uses the 75% RH Boveda pack. This is because the 75% uses one type of salt, while most other RH packs are blends of two.
The 32% pack also uses only one type of salt. Therefore, for even more accuracy, you can do a two-point calibration with both 75% and 32%.
A one-point calibrated Butler has a 2.4% degree of variance, while two-point offers 1.8%.
One-point calibration takes 24 hours, therefore the two-point calibration is 48 hours.
In order to calibrate, just set up your Butler in the calibration kit, go into the settings wheel in the App. Click Calibrate, and it gives you the option to do one- or two-point calibration. Note, however, that for two-point calibration, you need to buy the 32% pack, which doesn't come with the Butler.
After calibration, the Butler app allows you to set temperature alerts, with both high and low ends. The alerts are based on a six-hour average based on hourly updates from each Butler. If the temperature falls out of your range for more than six hours, the app alerts you.
You can look at statistics for relative humidity and temperature hourly, daily or monthly.
The Bluetooth connectivity of the Butler allows you to check all of your humidors instantly, but there's another benefit. Because you don't have to open your humidor to check it, you're not affecting the humidity at all by checking.
Overall, compared to inaccurate analog hygrometers and non-calibratable digital hygrometers, the Butler offers vastly more accuracy and convenience.
However, keep in mind that even a calibrated Butler can be 2-4 relative humidity percentage points off. Also, recalibrating your Butler every 3-6 months will keep it accurate, especially when entering a different season.
We hope you enjoyed this explanation of the Boveda Butler and how it's different from other cigar storage sensor solutions. Please like this video and subscribe to our channel for more cigar videos, and much more men's lifestyle content.
