would you shower with your pu?

I have been keeping a portion of a beeng in the bathroom that I shower in to see if the extra humidity will do anything. I have some separated so I can compare.
Any thoughts?

Sound interesting. A few problems though. Pu erh tales many years to age with a CONSTANT amount of humidity not just a 30 minute 70% per day. It could takes over 10 years with that method. Build a puidor as I did, If you are really interested in aging pu erh. When I was reading about building humidors, I read a lot about cigars, one expert said to NEVER EVER use the method you mentioned above. Bottom line I wouldn't do it, and not to be negative or anything, but I think you are setting yourself up for disappointment. But hey, go for it! It will be an interesting experiment.
Hope this helped, and Good Luck!

Don't forget the sometimes very strong odors of shampoos, shower soap and deodorants and if have a toilet in the bath the odor of - yes - poo.
Don't do it.

You guys are showering with Pu/poo and you wonder why you have trouble getting a good date?
Shower in oolong, and I'll go out with you.

Chip takes regular tea baths, but I don't know if he's gotten to the kissing or candle stage yet. I sleep with my pu, so you know it's serious.
