The invention discloses a baking method suitable for upper leaves of a
flue-cured tobacco variety K326. The method comprises the following steps: S1, harvesting upper leaves of mature tobacco plants and loading them into a tobacco loading chamber of a
flue-curing barn; and S2, baking the loaded upper leaves, wherein the baking comprises an early yellowing stage, a middle yellowing stage, a late yellowing stage, an early color fixation stage, a middle color fixation stage, a late color fixation stage, and a
tendon drying stage. The dry-
bulb temperature steadily increases in the seven stages of the early yellowing stage, the middle yellowing stage, the late yellowing stage, the early color fixation stage, the middle color fixation stage, the late color fixation stage, and the
tendon drying stage. The wet-
bulb temperature exhibits a "V"-shaped change in the five stages of the middle yellowing stage, the late yellowing stage, the early color fixation stage, the middle color fixation stage, and the late color fixation stage. In the middle yellowing stage and the late yellowing stage, the dry-
bulb temperature remains unchanged, showing "double 39-40°C and double 41-42°C", respectively, while the wet-bulb temperature decreases by 0.5-1°C in the latter stage of each stage. The method bakes the upper leaves, significantly reducing the ash content and proportion of the upper leaves, increasing the
hue of the tobacco leaves, and improving the proportion of
tobacco leaf grades, thereby significantly improving the baking quality of the upper leaves and the income of tobacco farmers.
