Los snus epic fail

[saberz]

Hand baked per zero video and good to go! Little on the big side but moved it in such a way that it's not too bad. Was craving my ettan los!

[squeezyjohn]

Zero was (hopefully is!) da man!

Indeed, but messy but it worked. Hopefully I can get a feel for the ice tool to make use of my purchase lol

How does los snus course ground work if you lower deck like dip?

How does los snus course ground work if you lower deck like dip?

Works great.....I lower deck all the time.....that said a snus like Roda (finer moister) is a bit trickier to start off with......a snus like Grov...Skruf.......or any of the V2 los......are a good place to start.

But once you get the hang of it any brand will do......case in point........right now I am lower decking some Roda

[piks101]

Good to hear. I lower deck General portions quite often. I am going to have to try a few of your los suggestions....thx. I have been opposed to trying los upper deck due to the caving factor. If it caves lower deck it seems like it would not be any real issue. I know I could figure out the upper deck method eventually but I just wanted to add los to the mix occasionally but not have to work at it, as I am good with portions overall.

It sees there are some los mints spear variety but why no peppermint?

From an herb perspective:Spearmint is more mild and used more in cooking and is very popular in tea. Its therapeutic properties come from carvone. Because it is more mild it is a better choice for use with children. Peppermint is stronger and its therapeutic properties come from menthol. It is used widely for digestive problems and menthol is an anti-viral, ani-fungal and decongestant. All of our teas at Vision Herbs contain either spearmint or peppermint to add in the healing and because mint is such a popular flavor.

Has anyone ever clamored for a peppermint los snus? Also seems like a good option for snuff given the menthol and decongestant properties.

if I remember one is a lot sweeter than the other , peppermint or spearmint?

[alopezg1]

more fragrant also

[saberz]

Spearmint was sweeter to me, which was very disgusting. To each their own though

[alopezg1]

yes I think it is spearmint that's the sweeter more fragrant of the two . I like it . It makes wonderful tea , especially in those beautiful metal tea pots they use in Morocco
with a bit of honey or sugar to increase the sweetness even more. good stuff

That seems to be the case on the spearmint but either can be too sweet depending on the amount added flavoring.

Peppermint is a (usually) sterile hybrid mint, a cross between watermint and spearmint, is occasionally found wild with its parent species in central and southern Europe, but the first intentional crossbreed of watermint and spearmint was done in England. Being sterile, it spreads by rooting.

Spearmint is a species of mint native to central and southern Europe, where it grows in wet soils.

Water mint is a perennial plant and is common throughout Europe, except for the extreme North.

Also spearmint is a lot sweeter whereas peppermint (given it's name) has a peppery bite to it!

Thunder frosted

and Odens cool mint are the only ones I know of that are currently available......and I am not sure Cool Mint comes in los

I'm not much of a mint/fruit snus guy.....so you might need to ask around about those
