Sous vide in jar at 300 degrees F for 300 minutes.

Would that make it cavendish? I guess not without adding water to the jars, correct?

[Citizen B]

Are we in derailment territory yet or is it too early to call?

[Kevin Keith]

SWRA is my go-to blend and my wife loves it! Win, win for me

Hard to argue with that...

Mine HATES it! She claims it just stinks.

I smoked SWR exclusively from 1979 until about 2009 when we got the Internet. You know what happen then? Ha ha.

Still needs another 43 pages to determine.

I believe that is correct as the water does not come in contact with the tobacco.

Negative ghost rider. Cavendish is a open steaming process that removes all the joy and character from an innocent tobacco. Your method is just stoving hotter in a jacuzzi

[MikeDennison]

Grab a small mason jar and try it, costs nothing and if you don’t care for it you only wasted a small amount. There’s no certain amount going in a jar so even a pipeful or two would work.

You've got me curious! What does it do to burley?

[MikeDennison]

A coupla more questions;

1. What does "stoving" do to the tobacco?
2. Does the process smell up the kitchen?

1- stoving something like a bright Virginia turns it into a dark Virginia. I've done it to Sutliff 507-c va slices and Stokkebye luxury navy flake with great results. It knocked the bright edges off, especially the LNF and no longer has an ashy taste to me

I always ran 190 degrees for 3-5 hours

2 - depending on the blend and your likes / dislikes I suppose it could. Doing Virginia / VaPer blends that way always smelled great to me.

Have you ever stoved a burley?

I have no idea. But Two-Timer is double toasted. Hence the name
