Makes ME hungry for a brownie.

I think it's a combination of putting the tobacco in the mold warm and big c clamps and a cheater bar to crank it down tight right away. There's no additional cranking the next day and I need the cheater to break the clamps loose when I'm done too
I’d like to do some more pressing. it has been been years since I’ve done that. I do have one brownie size crumble cake that has been curing in a tin since the last batchMr Beardsley wrote: ↑Thu Dec 08, 2022 7:21 pmI think it's a combination of putting the tobacco in the mold warm and big c clamps and a cheater bar to crank it down tight right away.

I might have to pop that open for new years!
No kidding . I thought he passed away .. I guess he just quit , which is better than being gone . . He is a master at blending . I used to give DMKeer shit about his bromance with brooks but the guy is a wizardPoolShooter wrote: ↑Mon Jan 09, 2023 6:46 am 13% Perique, 45% Latakia, 21% Burley, and 21% flue cured Virginia. I ordered a pound of each, aside from the Perique which I got maybe a couple ounces from pipesandcigars.com. Everything else I ordered from wholeleaftobacco.com, and shredded with a spaghetti cutter.
I matched percentages with grams to make it easy. The Latakia was dated 1997.
I’m tossing around another blend idea that I might try soon. 35% burley, 35% Virginia, 15% Perique and 15% Latakia.
I spoke with Steven Books over the phone multiple times and he was always helpful.
