I know this topic has come up before and I don't mean to flog it to death but I would really like to get the whole thing straight in mind, if y'all care to indulge me. A few questions:
1. Is jarring only suitable for cellaring purposes or for dipping in and out of on a fairly regular basis? (I only smoke one to three bowls a day and I have several blends in circulation. I wonder is jarring a good way of preventing them from drying out in their tins, without making the jarring process redundant by keeping them in circulation.)
2. Is jarring only suitable for comparatively large amounts of tobacco? At the moment I only have a maximum of 50 grams of any given blend, and I'm afraid this is too little to jar effectively.
3. Are the jars used just screw-top jam jars or is there a specific type?
4. Is there more to be done than just putting the tobacco in the jar and screwing on the lid?
I think that's about it. Thank you for any or all responses!
