For chemical and physical tests samples of homogeneous tobaccos of uniform humidity are required. To this end a curing chamber was constructed allowing conditioning of cigarettes and tobacco in very short time. The new apparatus can also be used for determining the hygroscopic compensation of different blends. Compared with conventional machines operating according to the same principle with pressure reduction, saturated salt solutions and air circulation it offers considerable improvements regarding duration and uniformity of conditioning
