[QUOTE="Dave_In_Philly, post: 399197, member: 1907"] I prefer not to dry my tobacco at all, but I admit, my beloved FVF comes a bit too moist right out of the tin even for me. I don't remember it being this way with the older stuff. It only seems to be since it came back on the market a year or so ago that it has been quite this significant, though. Edit to add: My preferred method for tackling FVF is to rub it out (as with all flakes). I find that for the most part, two flakes (from a tin) is too much, but one is not quite enough. So I rub two out fully, load about 2/3 into the pipe and put the rest back in the tin. From that point forward I use that extra little rubbed out bit from the previous smoke, as kindling on top of the freshly rubbed out flake. [/QUOTE]
