Learn to fill and roll Classic Filter Tubes with menthol flavor using an injector machine. Step-by-step guide for king size and 100 mm tubes.

Quick answer

Use an injector machine to fill Classic Filter Tubes with your preferred menthol tobacco for a consistent, cool smoke. The process takes under a minute per tube once you have your tobacco and tubes ready.

Why Use Pre-Rolled Filter Tubes?

Pre-rolled filter tubes save time and effort compared to hand-rolling. They come with a filter already attached and a paper tube that burns evenly, so you only need to fill them with tobacco. Classic Filter Tubes from Global Tobacco are known for their consistent quality and even burn.

Menthol vs. Non-Menthol: What to Expect

Menthol flavor adds a cooling sensation to the smoke. When using menthol tobacco with Classic Filter Tubes, the 15 mm filter helps keep the flavor clean and the draw smooth. The tube itself is flavor-neutral, so the menthol taste comes entirely from your tobacco.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Prepare your tobacco and injector: Use a tobacco injector machine (manual or electric). Fill the chamber with your menthol tobacco, packing it loosely but evenly. Overpacking can cause the tube to tear or the draw to be too tight. Use a consistent amount of tobacco per tube for even burn.
Step 2: Insert the filter tube: Take a Classic Filter Tube and slide the open end onto the injector nozzle. Push it gently until the filter touches the chamber opening. Ensure the tube is straight to avoid jamming. If the tube is crooked, the paper may wrinkle or tear during injection.
Step 3: Inject the tobacco: Pull the injector lever or press the button (for electric models) to push the tobacco into the tube. Do it in one smooth motion. Stop as soon as the tube is full to prevent overfilling. Overfilling causes a dense pack that makes drawing difficult.
Step 4: Remove and tap the tube: Carefully pull the filled tube off the injector. Tap the closed end gently on a hard surface to settle the tobacco. This prevents it from falling out and ensures an even burn. Skipping this step can lead to uneven burn or tobacco spilling out.
Step 5: Store or smoke immediately: Place filled tubes in a cigarette case or pouch. If storing for later, keep them in a dry, cool place to preserve the menthol flavor. Menthol can fade over time if exposed to heat or humidity. Use within a few weeks for the strongest menthol taste.
