I’m getting kind of impatient with waiting on my latest box purchase. What is the recovery time I should allow for them to get proper humidification after coming out of the deep freezer? I pulled one out of the wine-o-dor after about 4 days and the wrapper was real brittle.

im kind of confused on what you are asking about. but if your askign about how log it will take for your stick to get "smokeable" after you had to freeze them than:

after the freezer i put mine in the fridge for 2 days than at room temp for 2 days than back into the humi- still took a good week or 2 for me to even consider any of them smokable.

if you are asking how long should you should let your new sticks sit in the humi after receiving a box in the mail took- mine a solid 2 weeks to lose that bridle feel.

either way give it time.

My question is, after the freeze, how long should it take in the humidor to become smokable?

mine took around 2 weeks to become smokeable and lose that dry feel.
