Step Five:
I made a cold water bath to chill the mixture quickly
Step Six:
I poured the topping into a spray bottle and spritzed the pans of tobacco, stopping halfway through each in order to toss the leaf and coat evenly.
Step Seven:
I placed the trays in the oven for 45 minutes at 170* ("warm" setting)
Step Eight:
Enjoy an iced coffee and the smell of tobacco that inevitably wafts through your house. After removing the trays from the oven I sprayed them liberally with distilled water to both to retard the baking process, but also to get the tobacco back above proper Rh so that it could naturally dry to a smokable level.
I'm planning on lighting some up tomorrow once it's had a chance to let it cool and finish drying out. Right now the Rh in my house is around 55, so I'm simply allowing the trays to sit on the kitchen counter. Obviously you could substitute any liquor and/or extract for this depending on what you are trying to accomplish.
UPDATE: The stuff smoked great, and I even passed a bag onto @Bruck who was able to use it wisely in some nice flake recipes.
