Pipe Tobacco Moisture

Why Use a Pipe Tobacco Moisture Meter?

Pipe tobacco is carefully treated and blended in order to create nuances of flavor not found in other tobacco products. Therefore pipe tobacco moisture is a significant aspect of the production process. MoistTech’s state-of-the-art equipment can help optimize production levels and increase efficiency and quality within the facility.

Pipe tobacco is richer and bolder than tobacco found in cigars; it is also cut far more coarsely and is moister than other tobacco products. Yet, just like all tobacco products, the moisture of the tobacco must be carefully regulated at every point in the production process, even when it comes to packing.

MoistTech pipe tobacco moisture sensors measure not only moisture, but sugars, nicotine, flavors and temperature during the tobacco production process with a high rate of accuracy.
