[QUOTE="smoker13, post: 466952, member: 3962"] As I think I alluded to in a prior post, I smoke a lot of different brands of tobacco, which ultimately results in some being ignored to the point where some amount is left dried out. Obviously keeping tobacco in the factory tins and even the cans with the plastic replacement lids once the whoosh of the original seal is broken is not the optimal way to keep tobacco on hand. What do the wise brethren recommend to keep tobacco fresh so that it does not dry out? I'm most concerned here with tobacco I keep on hand that I am "actively" smoking, which can be as much as 20 different brands (both flakes and ribbon, about 70/30). The tobacco I "cellar" I simply keep unopened in the original tins, although I realize this may not be the best long term solution. I don't think I'm at the point where I should invest in a vacuum sealer and bags that hold a pound of tobacco. In fact, I KNOW I'm not at that point. But there has o be another way. I am truly fed up with opening a tin of stuff I've ignored for a bit and finding it so dried out I either have to chuck a Chinese circle in and pray it "humidifies" enough or, in the worst scenario, break up the flakes like saltine crackers and toss the crumbs into the compost bucket. Many Thanks - s13 [/QUOTE]
