A sensor apparatus may include a conduit structure including an inner surface defining a conduit extending through an interior of the conduit structure, an inlet structure coupled to an end of the conduit structure, and a plurality of sensor devices in hydrodynamic contact with the conduit. The inlet structure may couple with an outlet end of an external tobacco element to hold the outlet end of the external tobacco element in fluid communication with an inlet opening of the conduit structure, such that the conduit structure may receive a generated aerosol from the external tobacco element at the inlet opening, and draw an instance of aerosol through the conduit towards an outlet opening. The instance of aerosol may include at least a portion of the generated aerosol. Each sensor device may generate sensor data indicating a pressure of the instance of aerosol through a separate portion of the conduit.

Sensor apparatuses and systems

The method includes first adding at least one first chelator to smokeless tobacco, second adding at least one first antioxidant to the smokeless tobacco, the at least one first antioxidant being different than the at least one first chelator, and third adding at least one first flavorant to the smokeless tobacco, wherein the first adding occurs before the third adding.
