Storing bulky Tobaccos

[lonestar]

I've used new gallon sized paint cans to store certain tobaccos in.

You can buy these at Lowes or Home Depot brand new for a couple bucks.

I put stuff like packs of 5 brothers, or the sealed mylar bulk bags from CAO in these cans, and they're perfect. Much like a sealed tin.

I was just curious how other people store awkwardly packaged blends, like flakes.

What do you store bulk flakes in ?

Thats one I haven't quite figured out for longterm storage.

I have some rather large mason jars. Almost half gallon. I got them at Bed Bath & Beyond for a couple of bucks. I use them for my bulk tobacco. Not sure if they would be big enough for you. I like being able to see inside my containers.

I guess I'll have to track down some of these giant mason jars I keep hearing about. I have a hard enough time finding quart jars !

I just put the flakes in mason jars folded in half carefully.

if you have a hobby lobby around you they have real nice jars.

I use pyrex tupperware like containers with silicone lids.
