The invention relates to a continuous method for pressure-conditioning material for food and/or semi-luxury consumables, wherein said material ( 12 ) is introduced through an entrance ( 4 ) into a hyperbarically pressurized conditioning chamber ( 2 ), where it is treated with a conditioning agent, and extracted again from said conditioning chamber ( 2 ) at an exit ( 8 ), wherein the material ( 12 ) is conveyed continuously from said entrance ( 4 ) to said exit ( 8 ) in a conditioning chamber ( 2 ) inclined obliquely upwards, by means of a mixing conveyor, in particular a conveying screw ( 3 ). It further relates to a device for pressure-conditioning material for food and/or semi-luxury consumables, in particular for comminuted tobacco material, preferably tobacco stem material, comprising: a hyperbarically pressurized conditioning chamber ( 2 ), into which the material ( 12 ) is introduced through an entrance ( 4 ); supply nozzles ( 1 ) for treating the material ( 12 ) with a conditioning agent; and an exit ( 8 ) for extracting the material ( 12 ) from said conditioning chamber ( 2 ), wherein the conditioning chamber ( 2 ) is arranged obliquely inclined upwards and comprises a mixing conveyor, in particular a conveying screw ( 3 ), by means of which the material ( 12 ) is conveyed continuously from said entrance to said exit. It further relates to corresponding tobacco materials and smoking products.
