The invention relates to the technical field of cigar
processing, and discloses a cigar tobacco humidifying method. According to the method, the
pressure difference is used for driving the humidifying steam to diffuse to the deep layer of the tobacco stack, and the
moisture regaining uniformity is improved; a heating clamp is arranged for heating,
evaporation of water on the surfaces of tobacco leaves is promoted through heating, and the situation that the water stays on the surfaces of the tobacco leaves and consequently the
diffusion rate of
water vapor into tobacco stacks is reduced is avoided; in addition, the heating clamp is used for heating,
moisture on the surfaces of the tobacco leaves can be promoted to evaporate to generate
airflow to diffuse inwards,
moisture is helped to rapidly permeate into the deep
layers of the tobacco leaves, and moisture regaining efficiency is improved. Humidifying steam is sprayed to the surfaces of the tobacco leaves,
moisture permeation can be promoted by humidifying under the pressure of 0.18-0.25 MPa, meanwhile, the
retention time of the moisture is prolonged, and it is guaranteed that the moisture of the tobacco leaves is evenly distributed. By means of the method, moisture can be rapidly introduced into the deep layer of the tobacco stack, it is ensured that the moisture of tobacco leaves in the deep layer area is increased, and finally the target moisture content is evenly and stably achieved.
