Step by Step
How to roll a cigarette in three steps
1. Open the machine. There is a roller that moves inward and outward. In the cavity of the machine put the amount of tobacco you want. If you put a lot it will be a very pressed cigarette and difficult to smoke and if you put very little it won’t roll very well. Practice makes perfect. Move the roller again to close the machine and turn it by pressing with the thumbs down.
2. Once the tobacco is in the machine it’s time to put the paper. The sticky bit should be on top facing you. Slightly rotate the roller again until the paper will enter into the machine. Wet the sticky bit before it disappears into the machine and turn again.
3. Reopen your rolling machine and your perfectly rolled cigarette will appear.
