BLENDING / MIXING TOBACCO

[SpeedyPete]

How do I go about to ensure that my mix is evenly spread when I blend/mix tobacco please?

 

[Briar Spirit]

BIG mixing bowl, preferably glass, ceramic or metal bowl.

I layer the tobacco to begin with in roughly even measures, many many many layers of all constituent parts and just turn the baccy over & over & over a good amount of times letting it fall through my fingers, when I figure I've turned the baccy enough times I do it a dozen or so more times and it's good to go.  :sunny:

The owner of an old B&M that closed up last year, would put (for example) 4oz of this and 4oz of that in a very large plastic bag (think 4mil BIG ziplock bag), and blow it up kinda like a balloon...so it was mostly air, but the 8oz of tobacco was in the bottom. Give it a spin like a bread bag to seal it up and shake it that way. pretty clever actually

Tumble dryer on "fluff air"... we all mix our batches in 25 lb quantities, right?

Gotta throw a wet sock in with it or it'll dry out too much.

I do believe Briar Spirit has the formula down pat!!!!!!  FTRPLT
