Man. I recall reading a thread where someone was detailing how to do it and what fruits yield the best flavor.

Stuff about chopping it up finely and wrapping up the cuttings in a porus cloth and tying the cloth together...

If I recall correctly citrus works the best, like grape fruit and oranges and tangerines.

Use only the rind, and there is some way you have to remove the rind to preserve the essental oils (that make the bud smell/taste different)

Yeah,ive done that a few times.I make a "bouqet garni" in this case a fruit tea bag from baked citrus rinde and susspend from a string in the curing jar,it works great and can make a good smoke 10 times better

What if you combine flavors

Grape fruit and tangerines sounds delicous.

That or if you could figure out some way to use fresh pineapple that would be amazing.

Pineapple would be delicious,only putting it in the oven would turn it to smush,I could use the skin but i dont know how much flavour is left in that.combining sounds good tho mabey oranges and lemons

lol it was a joke but I guess it DOES sound pretty good! I mean shit they did make an amazing soda with that combination..


But I'm thinking mango's aren't citric enough to hold the flavor, I just can't imagine a mango put through the oven coming out smelling like mangos. I feel like the smell would be something like warm pumpkin you know?

Now lemon, limes, tangerines, and grapefruit are the only ones I would think (in my head) that would smell nice.
