What Do You Dry Your Tobacco Out In/On?

Elements rolling tray from my younger years.

North Carolina has a pottery district down near the state zoo, a town called Seaboard, which is interesting because it is in no way coastal. It has dozens of potters' studios and kilns, and over the years I have accumulated quite a bit of their work, including two pottery bowls I used to dry and sometimes mix blends of tobacco. They give the process a touch of art and tradition.

Great little area with magnificent artists!

@Johnny_Pipecleaner taught me to put a bowls worth in an empty tobacco tin, without the lid on, and then throw it on a coffee mug warmer for a few mins. It was a game changer for me. Highly recommend giving it a try!

A small and cheap hardwood cutting board

Good idea gone wrong #346

If you put a pound of tobacco in a mesh bag, where the mesh won't let anything out except fines, you could use the above!

I repurposed a tin for an ash tray and use the lid to dry tobacco as needed. Most I just load direct and for that I place the bowl of the pipe in this lid so any tobacco that misses the bowl can be saved.

I bought this at SmokingPipes and not only use it for drying, but also for packing a pipe and filling mason jars.

I also have one of these. Works great!

Works well for returning excess tobacco to the jar.

I want a leather tray (and matching leather pipe stand). Until I get one, I make do with a sheet of junk mail paper. I have an unending supply of them. Just when I think I'm out, my friendly postal delivery person brings me more. Uncle Sam is so giving and no one gives him any credit!

In this (a ceramic bowl that originally contained yogurt, I use the same, with a cork, as an ashtray):

I guess I'm a wasteful redneck...I use a paper plate.

 

[realypk]

I just lay mine ontop of the tabacco tin for a bit

 

[cigrmaster]

I have a leather matt that I use for cutting plugs and drying tobacco. Works fine for both.
