Los installation

[ttussok]

I've seen some people bake it and stuff it in, shove it in their lip and then pack it with their finger (hillbilly) and also throw some on their tongue and shove it up there.

I tried the latter this morning, it didn't give me as much grit in my mouth as I thought it would, and it's a 3 week old can so it's kinda dry. Anyone use one vs the other and whether you think it gives a better hit?

I use a prismaster, hand bake it firmer, and stick up top by hand. Never tried the grab a pinch method. That kinda scares me.

I tried it from this video

icetool. sometimes prismaster. i hate handbaking. icetool allows me a completely intact pris for well over 2 hours. handbaking is more like 20 minutes for me.

I've never thought about using the icetool, I am on my first ever can and got the hang of baking it in my fingers takes like 30 seconds then shove it in. I watched some icetool videos, looks like more trouble than it's worth to me. *shrug*

handbake. I even kept track of the number of prillas I got out of my last Knox can. 44 out of a 45g can. How's that for precision? 8)

Icetool is actually VERY easy to use. Insert into snus, pack it, insert into mouth. Simple.

I mostly handbake, although I seem to be addicted to acquiring IceTools. I also hillbilly sometimes. Just depends on what you want at the time.

If you firmly pack or bake the snus it will last longer but have less flavor and the nicotine hit will be stretched out over a longer time.

If you pack it lightly or not at all the nic and flavor will hit harder and over a shorter period.

i use my fingers and my prismaster the prismaster works better than my fingers i want a icetool so bad but i am to poor so i am saving up to get one then i can be a pro snuser too

I handbake V2 lös, and use the IceTool for the rest.

I hillbilly only on very rare occasions, and only with certain brands. It does taste/hit better, but not worth the mess for me.

Also, in my case it's not the installation as much as the UNinstallation when it comes to the hillbilly method. :wink:

I just started with lös. My first handbaked pris was excellent. Firm, and didn't mud up on me even after I had a giggle fit. Since then I seem to be getting worse and worse. It's still only been a few days, but I'm lösing my touch.

Also, I have no freaking clue as to how much I'm actually using. I try to use as much as is in a regular portion, but I think I'm going too big. I can't really tell, though. I don't want my tolerance to go up.

[ttussok]

I have gotten to be a master at handbaking but I've seen a problem of late. I have a general extra sterk portion and a skruf stark los, but I tend to gravitate towards the portion because it gives me a better hit. I think I may be packing my prilla too much and have started hillbillying more, especially when I only have a short time to enjoy it. If it's right after dinner, I'll pack it tight and enjoy the flavor for an hour or so.

I was having a few beers on saturday and rather than lighting up like I use to, I packed in one on each side!

That's pretty hardcore!
