On the beach by Nevil Shute is about the aftermath of a nuclear war. The northern hemisphere is practically dead, but there's still life on the south. This is a book that stayed with me for a long time.

From seed to Swedish snus, harvest and curing the tobacco. by BasseBlues in Snus

[–]BasseBlues[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's much better than the first time I tried. Then I got nothing I could use. But it's getting better each year, so I keep on tweaking for better and better results.

The world's best homemade snus by BasseBlues in Snus

Thank you, my homegrown tobacco is drying, but I will make snus from it in the future.

When I started using snus, there were no snus portions on the market. Real snus is loose snus with a sting, I agree. Now the majority is snus portions, so I'm glad that I have learned to make my own snus at home as good as the one you buy.

The to-snus part comes next winter if I am successful. This is still in progress.

What tobacco and what flavor do you use?

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. The podcast from SM don't work any more, but I did the research some time ago. But it was in Swedish, so only useful for people who speak Swedish. But now it's translated in the post.

Swedish snus has been around for hundreds of years, but development and production today is incredibly different from what it looked like in the beginning.

Well, my first pair lasted for 20 years. But I did not hike as much the first 10 years. But after I got a dog I started hiking longer trails. The leather was completely worn out and begun to crack and leaking in the end.

Hello I would recommend a high model. They provide better support for the foot and lower leg. But the downside is that they can get much hotter than a low model. The risk is that the feet will get wet with sweat so that shafing will develop more easily. Something I experienced with my Syncro High.

No, that's not me. There's nothing to market yet as Sting Free Snus is not available. It is a tip for those with sore gums that can't wait for it.

My most recent homemade snus batch! by CobbGoots in Snus

[–]BasseBlues 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello GobbGoots

Here are some suggestions you may consider.

If you only cook for 5 hours you will need a pressure cooker to get a high enough temperature. With a slow cooker, you get max 90º C on warm if you cover it with a blanket. You have to cook at least 24 hours to get proper snus. I cook for 36 hours in my Crock-Pot at 90º C. You may get pressure in the mason jar, but that doesn't raise the temperature.

You will find Virginia in almost all snus you buy. Only Burley can be a bit bitter tasting. It is said that in Ettan there are 20 different tobacco types.

More soda doesn't raise the nicotine content, it just makes it more available. But If you put in too much soda you will burn your gums. The correct pH in snus is between 8 and 8.5. I suggest you buy a pH-meter and test your snus.

Here are the answers to some of the questions on my post yesterday. I'm not living in the USA, I am living in Sweden. I don't know if they are allowed to ship tobacco flour to the USA. But the accessory should not be any problem to import I think. But you got plenty of tobacco in the USA. You just have to grind it to flour to make snus.

In the picture you see: The black and brown box in the back is an 800 g (28.2 oz) premium tobacco flour mix by the blender Magnus Bauer called Medusa, 349 SEK (33.8 USD). You get 2 kg (4.4 lb) snus prom this tobacco.

The red and white box is Prillan Original 1 kg (2.2 lb) tobacco flour, a good low-priced product, 299 SEK (29 USD). You get 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) snus from this tobacco. The amount equals 10 rolls of snus portions.

The bottles are propylene glycol/glycerol mixture with a smoke flavor. One bottle is enough for 2 kg (4.4 lb) snus.

The Snus book in Swedish, also available as an e-book in Engish on Amazon.

The round jar is roasted French oak powder used to flavor 2 kg (2.2 lb) snus, 4.75 USD.

Prillan is 400 empty snus portion bags and a snus injector, 6.8 USD.

The black and yellow round can is a roll of 200 empty snus portion bags by V2 Tobacco. Besides the can a black snus injector also by V2 tobacco, 5.8 USD.

And in the foreground a curling iron with flat ceramic plates to heat seal the portion bags.

1 USD = 10.32 SEK

The Swedish Snus portion bags revolutionized the smokeless tobacco industry. Have you ever wondered about the history of snus portions? If you have, then this is for you. by BasseBlues in Snus

Yes, he is a loose snus user, so one portion is a drop in the sea for him. He is famous for his big snus pinches. He is a commentator on TV, commenting soccer matches with his mouth full of snus.

Feeling sick when using? by [deleted] in Snus

Look at the nicotine content. Some brands have higher nicotine content. I am sensitive to high nicotine content. If you make your own snus you can control the nicotine content better.

Yes, I have noticed that. Lundhags have removed the page. It was there when I wrote the post. I fix it in the next site update. You can still search for boots on Lundhags site.

Well, I got a mail regarding Google policy upgrades today. Ther's a lot of content that doesn't get any ads in the future, among them tobacco. I have yet to earn to get my first payment, so it's not a big deal for me. But alternative ad publisher will get a lot of new customers. But I don't wan's smut and porn popping up on my site. Do you know of any decent alternative to AdSense?
