Re: SG'S Brown #4???

I use a Cuisinart food processor....

Just kidding, I agree with all the posts. Whatever works best for
you. I find that the dampness of the flake or rope is the
determining factor. If it is wet, rub it out fine. After it drys
out, you can smoke it whole (and it will burn cooler than rubbed out
dry tobacco).

A double guillotine cigar cutter works great.  You can cut to your
