When your recipe calls for Barbados rum, reach for one of these: 1  Planation Grande Reserve 5 year. 2  Mount Gay Eclipse. 3  Doorly's XO.  R.L. Seale 10 year.
How To: 1  1. Purchase a hygrometer. One of the easiest ways to test your homeâs humidity level is to head to the drugstore and purchase a hygrometer or indoor humidity monitor. 2  2. Check for signs. If you donât want to spring for a store-bought device, there are several telltale signs of humidity.
Dry air is good, but wringing moisture from the air is energy-intensive. Keeping your indoor humidity low is generally a good idea. During the winter, lowering the indoor humidity is easy (and relatively cheap): all you have to do is operate a ventilation fan. If you bring in cold outdoor air, the outdoor air will be dry. (Cold air canât hold much moisture.) The longer you run a ventilation fan, the lower your indoor relative humidity.
