How to Prep Mason Jars for Tobacco Cellaring
Hello everyone,
Well not too long ago I had some bulk tobacco (LJ Peretti's Park Square) that I wanted to put into mason jars for long-term storage and I thought that I would take pictures throughout so that I could explain the process to anyone out there who may not know how to do it. Kind of a tutorial I guess.
With that said, this is how I do it and others may do it differently. This method has worked for me for several years and I have not seen any adverse effects from it.
Step 1.
First off I usually seperate out the tobacco that I want to jar into equal amounts. In this case it was from a full pound so I wanted to seperate it into 4 equal amounts of 4 ounces. I just weighed it out on a kitchen scale that I have and placed it on paper towels on top of plates. That way I wouldn't have to wash the plates afterwards. I'm lazy like that.
