how long do you keep a portion in?

[truthwolf1]

I am with the Swedes when I use portions, 15-30 min.
Los I will go a little longer but not much. When I lower dip it is usually not more then 15 minutes.

Get my buzz then get out!

Depends on the brand of snus I'm using. Some just last longer than others....

Same here. My minimum probably 30 minutes. My max has occasionally gone over 4 hours, mainly with a lös for the longer timeframe.

Avg I would say 2 hours.

[Veganpunk]

My average is about an hour. Sometimes shorter depending on the flavor.

20 min to 45 max for 8mg same for med starks.
If it's the new Skruf Xtra Stark, I'm lucky to hit 10 minutes :shock:
Los, I'm a small pincher 15 to 20 min

[oregonrain]

Anywhere from 1 hour to 4 hours. 75 minutes is probably average.

4 HOURS! Well you've just given me something to do today. What snus do you find last the longest for you? A portion for me is 10min to an hour. No reasoning for this but i don't feel the urge to be frugal. I would also like to try a week where I use only one portion a day to test myself. I'll let you know when I do that. :roll:

I generally have one in anywhere from 1.5hr to 2 hrs.

Somewhere around 30 minutes to an hour. If I'm using los I'll keep it in longer.

20 mins.. but sometimes, "if i'm in the mood" (haha), i leave it in for 30 mins..

How long to keep snus in.

I find that depending on the portion size and type. I keep them in for different periods of time. I find that I keep the whites in longer due to the lasting nicotine hit it provides for a longer time.

Some of the regular portion snus I take out after a half hour or so. I also drink tea at work when I snus and at times I think that it helps keep the moistness going for a lot longer in the white portions, which are my personal favorite.

I was wondering if anyone is a chain snuser. I tend to go back to back while I am at work. It keeps me going and as a side note I heard that nicotine helps with focusing for longer periods of time, due to the fact that it is a stimulant. Anyone else feel this way.

I like to keep portions in for between and 1 and 2 hours depending on bitterness / flavor loss. I've found if I "form" a portion into a tighter packed rectangle similar to the 01 portions and push it high in my lip it'll keep going for 90 minutes plus, but if I just pop one in with maximum surface area exposed it'll usually loose most of its flavor by 75 minutes in. I usually keep my loose prillas in for 90 minutes to 2 hours, and I find the longer I keep them in the easier it is to keep them going. Sounds weird but as they conform to my lip and start to loose flavor i'll scrape a little of the perimeter off with my tongue to let some of the internal drier snus hit my lip, which keeps them going for even longer.

Few hours, 4 at most.
