Tobacco Storage Question

[Dudditz]

I used to put everything in Mason jars. Storage becomes more of an issue though. Now a days the one pound blocks, Esoterica bags, paint can tobacco, and square tins get sealed in Mylar bags.

I have the jars so I guess that will be the route I go. Thanks for the advice!

It is deemed inert enough for food use, but is not completely inert. Read the chemistry texts.

You're referring to metallized mylar with 7 layers of lamination?

You just making this up…?

Mylar can withstand 300 C temps and 5000 volts as a dielectric. Inert enough for food use? Pah…

Aside from that I haven’t seen many chemistry texts that detail the specifics of Mylar as in the DuPont manufactured material.

Have you considered toilet water tank? Weight down with a brick, I think it's pretty much air tight. Of course, the space is premium.

official the worst advice ever given on this site. Even the act of considering this will ghost your pipe with that old public bathroom smell that can not be removed no matter how much effort or quality of chemicals involved. So thanks bunches for that.

Oh shoot. Forgot to say I'm joking.

You’ve been watching too many prison movies…

well that's just too little too late. I think the only way to get forgiven is to help me get through this lb of Mountain Camp that is wee bit soggy.

Does it have a blue tinge to it also?

no but oddly after you smoke it everything else takes on this odd blue tinge.

I would put it in pint mason jars and vacuum seal them. Then only have one tin open until it's gone. The plastic bags transfer air through the plastic, unlike glass.

That seems to be the consensus. Thanks for the input!
