    I’m just curious how often do you take a pinch? How much of this stuff do you get through in a day?

    Every 15 or so

    Snuff is like booze. There are endless liquors that are lovely to have on hand but most folk have regulars that they go to, regardless of how abundant others may be.

    I think you’re right. I have only been back on the snuff for a few days after a break for a few years but out of all the tins I have bought I find there is one or two I’m reaching for more and more.

    It’s the same with pipe tobacco for me.

    I take snuff from 2 to 4 times an hour and I think it amounts to between 1 and 2 grams per day.

    2-3 in the am. 2-5 throughout the day. 4-8 at night. I’m more occasional than most but I’m also a pipe smoker and  work at my brick and  mortar. So I get my nicotine other ways mostly. But snuff is special.

    my question is how many times do people do a thorough cleaning (more than just blowing your nose) per day?

    When I’m on my own, I take a pinch every 10 minutes or so. I take it less often when my wife is about – she dislikes tobacco in all its forms!

    Your nose? I thought you were supposed to eat the stuff, It barely stays in my lip longer than a minute.

    Not sure if you’re joking or not, mate. I sure hope you are.

    I thought you were joking.

    Are you really supposed to suck it up your nose?, all joking aside

    I have a bullet that malfunctioned after I refilled it with the Toque Rustica, and the screw cap on the bottom must have leaked air. Becouse when I sniff snuffed the bullet, the dang thing emptied in my nose, when I coughed a cloud of dry Rustica came out my mouth. Now the bullet has me a little gun shy

    I average about a gram per day myself. Occasionally more if it’s a particularly stressful or long day.

    I’m typically 1-3 grams, depending on if the wife is home and how crazy the kids are. I’m a stay at home dad so when the kids are wild while mama is at work there is more snuff pinching. The wife doesn’t like tobacco so there’s hardly any on the weekends when she’s around. She also works in the medical field so she has her opinions. Thankfully preschool starts in August and then there will only be one child at home. Visiting family in Germany before school starts and that’s the one time she’s ok with me snuffing because so many of my friends and family in Germany pinch as well.

    I average about a gram a day.  Allergy season I do very little and winter I do more. I think it’s good to take a day or 2 off once in a while also.

     

    And to Rob, I use bullets all the time and have since I started snuffing (over 3 years now), and I’ve never had one fail like that.  I have had the cap or bowl come off and all the snuff loose in my pocket, but that’s it.

    For me it really depends, there will be times where I am not using for hours, and then have an occasional pinch or two, but when I have free time, it averages at around a couple pinches every 10 minutes, for about an hour or so, and then it slows down. It really varies, but on a day when I am busy and go out and about, it would be around a pinch a 45 minutes. However if we are talking about Schmalzlers, that goes around a bigger pinch every 5 minutes until I am bored of it.

    I use around 1-2gr. per day by little pinchies..2-5x per hour..

    #23175

    I sniff every 1/2 hour approx, one good pinch in each nostril, but the frequency depends a bit on the type of snuff, with heavily scented snuffs usually it takes a bit longer since I feel satisfied with the lingering aroma even when they can be low on nicotine.

    With fine and not heavily scented snuffs I tend to pinch more often but with smaller pinches, it helps to maintain the aroma fresh in the nose.

    The quantity depends greatly on the type of snuff, with fine & dry snuffs a small quantity goes a long way so maybe 1 g per day, with medium nicotine moist snuffs it ramps to 3 or 4 g per day.

    Most of the time. Sometimes will have off days.

    I’ve just started dusting my nostrils again after a lengthy layoff, but when I am snuffing frequently, I still seem to barely use any. I once stuck with the same 10g tin, just to see how long it took me to empty it, and I’m sure it was over a fortnight. That’s just snuffing whenever I get the urge throughout the day. It might be a few minutes between pinches, or a few hours.

    It’s deceptive though. After consuming the first half in weight, the rest isn’t settled and compact, so the tin can still appear quite full.
