The Free Mounting System (FMS) from Proteros Biostructures can also be a tool for this. As long as it does not have highly volatile components in the crystalization conditions, room temperature testing is not too difficult. There are other suppliers of humidity control devices which are available with lesser accuracy, but may still be useful...if you can get a little time on one.
