Zusammenfassung:	To prevent overdrying of tobacco during start-up and closing-down of a dryer, e.g. one with a rotating inclined drum 1, finely distributed moisture is sprayed onto the tobacco T as it leaves the dryer - the moisture may be a mist of, preferably, hot water droplets, or it may be wet steam. The internal heating of the drum 1 and the application of moisture may be controlled to a conveyor weigher 54 ahead of the drum 1, operating with a monitor of the moisture content of the tobacco entering the dryer. A further monitor may measure the moisture content of tobacco discharged from the dryer.
