Tins and tap boxes go in a sock drawer. Anything over 50g goes in a babyfood jar, cleaned, and bulk in ball jars.
Mini-Mason jars in an old refrigerator in the garage/workshop.
Why would a moist snuff be stored in a refrigerator? A refrigerator is a dehumidifier. Wouldn’t it dry out the moist snuffs?
@roadking My thinking goes like this, the moist snuff is in a sealed, airtight mini-environment in the individual jar thus most of the moisture is preserved, also in an arid place like New Mexico where I live refrigerators are wetter than the ambient environment which typically has less than 20% humidity, also the snuff temperature is constant within 5 degrees F +/- whereas a typical day in New Mexico (especially this time of year) has highs in the 80s F (27 C) and lows down to 38 F (3.5 C). In sum New Mexico is a hellish place for snuff, also I keep a jug of distilled water in the snuff fridge with the top removed which adds some measure of humidity, however slight, in a year the jug is 1/2 gone.
Baby food jars, and small mason jars. I have never had 1 go moldy, but I live in the high desert ( low humidity) :bz
For long term storage I use pipe thread tape or electrical tape depending on the tin then I wrap in sandwich wrap and into a mason jar for which I have a Foodsaver vacuum sealer to suck all the air out of the jar. Should be good for almost forever. For snuff I’ll use within a few months I’ll do the same and just store it in a jar or baggie. I fought with the SG tins trying to get the top off and what I found was when vacuum sealing the jar it would pop the lid off the top tin from the vacuum (so if the top tin is not threaded it should be taped good). So how I open SG tins now is put some paper towels in the bottom of a mason jar to build up the height and put the full SG tin on top then do the vacuum and it pops it right off, if you dont use the paper towels and leave the tin on the bottom of the jar you will have a jar full of snuff : )
I use glass mason jars exclusively. I don’t worry about temperature too much, just store them in a closet. I always use a clean spoon to decant. Regarding electrical tape around original tins: I did this initially, but I found that for long term storage, it’s worthless. Assuming (wrongly) that it would be difficult/expensive to order online, I mailed five large tins of WoS SP-100 to my new address when I emigrated to the States. When I arrived in the States, and my snuff arrived in the mail, I decanted the tins into a mason jar. I had also brought one large tin with me on the plane. This was bought at the same time and place as the other five tins. I forgot about this sixth tin, and didn’t decant it into the mason jar. Five years later, the stuff in the mason jar is fresh as the day I bought it, but the stuff in that one remaining tin sounds like sand when I shake it. Completely dried out. The only original tins that I would even contemplate storing snuff in are the F&T ones, but why not just use mason jars? It’s not like they are expensive
