How many portions do you use when you snus?

[sgreger1]

I dunno maybe its because I used to dip american cope, but when i see a puch/portion I automaticly see it as something thats not going to do the trick so I put in 2 or 3. Is this normall? With some higher nic brands I can only keep 2 or 3 in for like 20 min so I put in less, but what is the average for how many portions you put in?


How many do you guys use when you snus, and what amount of nic does your brand have.

A few here do double portion. I have never felt the need so just haven't. I use one portion at a time, but do chainsnus, putting another in as soon as I take out the old about 85% of the time.

When I first was transitioning from smoking, I spent about 2 months using nothing but sterks. Then, I was able to transition down with ease to mostly regular portions, but still use about 3 - 4 sterks a day, not including any Elyxr's I have first thing in the morning.

I suspect your brain is just playing tricks with you. Try using just one, and if you feel that isn't enough, maybe a sterk or two.

Me would occasionally double-barrel in the past when I was quitting the cigs but now one does the trick. However, lately I have been waking up by popping two portions of Elixyr, falling back to sleep and waking refreshed about 20 minutes later.

I'll hit a sterk in the morning or late evening, generally in the 11-12 mg range. Everything else is 8 mg, one right after the other. If I'm up in the middle of the night, I may pop a mini and go back to bed.

The only time I double-barrel is with a mini and one of Northerner's energy portions.

Chainsnus one portion at a time throughout the working day. When drinking time commences, it's either a pair of portions (one regular and one high nicotine portion) or else a high nicotine portion paired with a pris of Phantom Blue.

The only time I double up is if I'm out drinking. Otherwise I switch between regular and strong portions...

1 at a time. The only time I've used more than 1 was with minis I didn't care for. Using 2 got rid of them twice as fast :^D

[Eidekker]

1 at a time. Sometimes 2.

[snusjus]

I don't like doubling up; its simply too uncomfortable.

[Soft Morning, City!]

One at a time. Never tried doubling up and probably won't.

?

Two if regular.

One if a high nic.

Strong flavor sometimes just one (depending).

[madgar]

I use mainly 8mg snus with an occasional 11-13mg thrown in during the course of the day. I only ever use 1 portion at a time and generally keep them in for 1-2 hours at a time. 2-3 hours if using lös.

[GenuineSpirit]

1 at a time.

[PrisMaster]

with regular sized portions I always use 2. I do not use portions much as I love my los and I love a big pris so thats why I use 2 portions at a time.

Very surprised at how many people double! I've only done it once or twice in my early days, before I had tried the few strong portions available at the time, when I needed a punch in the face. I see no need with the stronger snuses available. I appreciate the regular strengths for when I don't want as much nic. Interesting to hear how others do their thing tho!
