Los snus epic fail

[piks101]

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

Hey Snusdog, those are all spearmints. I think los peppermint is not an option at this time unfortunately. That is the los flavor I would really like to try and I have a few buddies that dip Skoal Mint longcut and i would like to throw some their way. In the U.S., it seems mint means peppermint and spearmint is used specifically to note that flavor.

Question? Do you find your prilla losing form and kind of flattening and going towards the side? The main prilla is where I inserted it but as I'm using it it just starts to edge out.

The Göteborg Rabe seems to hold better and not slide into my teeth but does extend out towards the side much like ettan. Is this normal?

Im having trouble with my handbaked pris, they disintergrate within 20 mins? also is it normal for bits to fall off while in use and is it safe to swallow said bits?

No second attempt today just ended in a mudslide.

ill give it 10 mins and try again... I shall convert praise alah

up to 25mins now, still get bits falling off from the edges. on attempt #4 within an hour and a half.

The last attempt I tried compressing it with my tounge a bit seemed to work at first but later enhanced the mudslide.

perhaps the xtool will be a better idea or ill try some thunder chew. I SHALL SUCCSEED!!!

Go check out the Dippers Guide to Snus......it is all about los and will have a lot of good info from a lot of members that you may find helpful.

You can find the guide here: http://www.snuson.com/showthread.php...-Guide-to-Snus

I think ive already, read it, cant see anything i didnt no already from my last attempt years ago. i think i just need as the guide says to give my lips and gums some adjustment time and to find the right placment. Currently got thunder chew in. ill see if i can keep this one going for an hour.

I think i need to round of the edges of the baked pris. idk ill watch some more tutorials.

update: hmm everyone is hand baking the hard way on youtube. Im shaping mine with my index finger making a tube shape and working it and compressing it at the same time, is that correct? Im only making mini pris this way compared to the monster pris sizes on youtube(must be 3x a portion)

So far with thunder chew all is good, tastes nice too. Might be my go to. Shame they dont do a phantom or offroad chew.

Most of it stays in place with my baking, so its not to bad, just mini mudslides. They still dont make it to the hour mark.

Getting used to it now. been los snusing for half a day, quite enjoyable. better then portions. Shame about the mess and having to swallow the odd bits but not to bad at all and makes more sense cost wise then portions.

Still unless something nice comes along like goteburg or LD i might just as well use thunder chew.

Update:

Well got used to loose snus i think. Lennys cut seems to stay together in my mouth better then V2, got through a can in one day, mostly while drunk.

Had one nasty disaster, tried the farmers/hillbilly pinch... ended up with a mouth full of snus. my bad.
