Doesn't blending with a kitchenaid hand mixer chop up the tobacco finer?

I already have issues with the end tonnaco being to fine and packing to tight but I would like to fine a better way than mixing by hand and eye. I have a balance now but would like to speed up the mixing as that is probably the most time consuming. I do a 75/25% Windsale Platinum/Ryback mix, so you have a regular cut with a fine cut shag type tobbaco.
Any help in speeding up the mix would be appreciated.

what about a coffee bean grinder or food processer ? make sure the tobacco is moist and you just touch the on button for a second or less so you dont just make shake.
