Spray bottle
For misting water or a salt and alkali solution evenly over leaf or ground tobacco.

What to look for
Use a fine mister or atomiser rather than an ordinary household sprayer. Big drops soak one spot and leave the rest dry.
Spread the ground tobacco in a thin layer on a tray, mist it, stir and mist again. For whole leaf, spray both sides and let it sit for an hour before you go further.
