[QUOTE="Rail Man, post: 536953, member: 58"] Nice stash! I’d say do whatever works for you and don’t worry about it too much. I don’t think too much moisture is lost just dipping into a jar and if it does begin to feel a bit dry you should be able to rehydrate it as long as you didn’t allow it to get bone dry. Myself I subscribe to the smaller container method, and use 8 oz wide mouth jars almost almost exclusively (some flakes I can get away with even smaller jars). I can easily get 50g in one and 2 oz of ribbon cut if I compress it in a little (another thing I don’t worry about). Aside from not disturbing aging tobacco I have another theory with these, that is if the seal is compromised on one or if one gets contaminated while jarring I only lose 2 oz instead of a whole lot more. The downside is you need a lot more jars and a lot more space and shelves that can take the additional weight of all that glass. Definitely keep the boxes, they are the best way to store and stack a lot of jars. Tins I just leave alone. [/QUOTE]
