Ok I know this sounds weird but I'll give it a go anyways....
In an attempt to keep my tinned tobacco moist, hence the ones I am smoking currently, I have been trying to figure on a way of making these last longer in the Tin rather than just empty them into a mason jar. Besides if I am opening such jars or tins once a week then what is the point in storing them in a jar or tin anyway?
SO..... I have been using the technique, which so far I don't see any drawbacks yet.
What I do is after I fill my pipe I take a breath and breathe a couple of " fogging" breaths into the tin and then quickly re-seal it. This has seemed to keep the tobacco sufficiently moist and keeps them from drying out too much with the repeated openings and closings.
Has anyone else used this technique? Do you foresee any issues with doing said "fogging/ breathing" into the tin?
It just seemed intuitive to do this to maintain moisture, while not adding a lot of humidity into the container.
Any comments? Am I crazy? I just love the feel and look of a tin to fill my bowl. Seems much more sophisticated than feeding from a jar....
