I've had the best success rubbing it out while still wet (if you try to rub a dry flake out it crumbles to dust and tiny toothpicks) then letting it dry a bit and loading loosely. I've tried the fold and stuff and it just will not burn and makes a lot of moisture.
A lot of it is the oil inside the tobacco. A lot of SG flakes suffer from this unfortunately.

I like to rub the flake out, then put it back in the tin and let it sit in there for about 3 weeks undisturbed. That seems to evaporate the perfect amount of water as well as oil to where it still smokes even and dry, but isn't so dry that it becomes harsh.

I also like to smoke all SG flakes in a big wide open draw pipe.
