[QUOTE="eon, post: 142444, member: 1551"] For me, most tobaccos are way too moist straight out of the tin. Just leave it out on a sheet of paper for anywhere from quater of an hour to an hour. Personally I do not use the desk lamp or any other artificial heat source. Definitely an oven or a microwave. Never. If the chilly Scottish damp can get my tobacco to the right moisture level I am sure any other place will too. The time really depends on the moisture level of the leaf, the cut and your personal preference. Experiment and you will find what suits you and each of your favorite tobaccos. I think it's hard to overdo. People tend to think that the more moist a tobacco the more flavour it imparts which, in my experience, is completely untrue. Some folks also pack a bowl before bed or in the morning and smoke it 8-12 hours later. I haven't had as much success with that but many swear by the technique. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
