Found this on Schnupfdosn.de it has a chamber for a snuff supply, by pulling down on the button a portion of snuff can be loaded and then launched with force into your nose by releasing the button. Can also be used to portion out snuff onto hand or sniffed without launching. Pretty cool, huh?

Love mine. About to order a 2nd one.

@rs422 if you don’t mind me asking, did you order yours from Schnupfdosn or somewhere else? Also which wood did you pick?

@rostanf Ordered direct from Schnupfdosn. I got the oak.

Have had mine for 7 months now and absolutely love it.Excellent craftsmanship. Not a gimmick, these devices really do work! Very useful for when the nasal passages are clogged up. Pocket sized but mine stays at home for fear of losing it. I ordered 3 in beech, maple and smoked oak. Each one looks gorgeous. Total was 110 EUR. He only charged 6.5 EUR for shipping to the US. I placed 3 extra springs on the order as well. A mini funnel is a must- have for ease of filling. Luckily I already had one in the arsenal. Payment is PayPal. Minimal back and forth emailing. Very nice guy(Florian) to deal with. I use mine every morning and evening.

What types of snuff does it work with?

@ar47 any finely ground such as most of the Indian snuff. I read somewhere that the course snuffs do not get along with the device.

@tinhuey glad to hear it. I’ve seen a chinese knockoff but you guys have convinced me to go with this one. Thanks.

There are virtually zero reviews of the schnupfdosn on the internet. I think any serious snuff taker would appreciate this fabulous machine. It provides a whole new experience.

@rostanf Glad you made a decision to support the original inventor. I feel the price is very reasonable for what you get. And the quality will surely be much better than a Chinese knock-off. The theft of intellectual property is a whole other topic of discussion…

@tinhuey agreed on all points. I doubt I could find the knockoff again if I tried, not to mention what kind of wood it was or what possibly poisonous wood finish they used, lol.The real decision was the original or nothing.

My schnupfdosn arrived today I ask you how do I have to clean it Can I use water in order erase all the smells of snuff?

@tinhuey @rs422 can either of you answer schmalzerfranzls question.

Some good friend here could make a video review of this fine german piece of machinery. 

It seems like an ingenious device, quality-made. The price is a little high, though. Cleaning the scent out when changing snuffs could be problematic. I could see myself using it for toasts and flavor-neutral snuffs for sure. Thinking of waiting it out to see more reviews. It would be nice if they posted a Youtube video or something demonstrating how it works.

@schmalzerfranzls I have not cleaned mine in 8 months. But only use it for plain snuffs. I do not know if there would be ghosting from changing flavored snuffs. Probably not much. The cans of compressed air used for cleaning computer keyboards would do well in my opinion. Never use water on raw wood. Hope that helps.

It is not very easy to use…

@schmalzlerfranzl Sorry to hear that. There was a little bit of a learning curve, but I have found it very easy to use. It only takes me a few seconds to load and release.

@tinhuey Yes I am learning and practicing Better than before but is not the easiest thing to use

@schmalzlerfranzl i do not know if this helps, but one thing I learned is to not inhale at all through your nose. Load it, hold it to the nose and release the button. If you breathe in during the release, snuff will go straight to the back of the nasal passage where you do not want it to go. Simply let the device do the work.

@tinhuey do you get some on your shirt though, doing that? The application for me would be snuffing more safely while driving (I have a manual transmission, so things get real interesting while pinching in the city)

@tinhuey I have no problem now I am used to it now I am a little disappointed because the wood gets dirty and black and it is hard to clean

@ar47 Less on my shirt with the machine then pinching. When driving I throw on a black apron with the waist straps cut off for cleaner snuffing. And shake it off outside the car at the destination. I am amazing how much powder ends up on that apron even after a short trip.

I purchased one over a year ago and was quite happy using it a box/dispenser, very convenient one hand operation. It is funny how it never occurred to me to use it as a catapult but now I find it obvious that it was designed to do that as well. O well, I will have some fun tonight.

On the topic of smell and cleaning the device - I am only using it for unflavoured snuff in order to avoid smell cross contamination. Things like toque natural/toasted, vikings blonde/brown, HDT, Irish 22 and so on. Coarse or fine makes no difference, just bare in mind that as a wooden box the snuff will dry out quickly which is not a problem if you are using dry snuff. I used mineral oil in order to make it a bit more humidity retaining but not sure it had any effect.

@RS422 @tinhuey @schmalzlerfranzl @Dyson_nose Schnupfdosn is doing a giveaway on instagram, follow them and take a photo of your Schnupfdosn in action label it #Schnupfdosn for a chance to win an oak version. https://instagram.com/schnupfdosn?igshid=ilg3dg4qzf1n

Just a reminder, the giveaway on instagram only has six entries.

put in an order for one

I don’t use anything but my thumb and finger to pinch. I have a bunch of bullets that originally were loaded with Q snuff, but I just don’t get a big enough hit to satisfy my brain. I already have too many tins and any more stuff just gets in my way.

@JohnnyO please give us a small review after you’ve used it a bit.

will do!

What was the review on this? Looks very interesting.

 I lost mine for several weeks only to find it recently sitting under a bush near the house. The rain and weather had left it a bit mildewy and the springs rusted.  I may be able to clean it up but it may require a bit of sanding and a new spring. 

Great device.  I miss using it.

I have received mine one week ago, the first one sent to Spain. It cost me a little bit to get used to it, the first time I loaded it to the maximum and ejected the snuff into the nostril; it made me cry a little bit. Afterwards learnt thet you can easily adjust the quantity. Works perfectly, you can wether put it in the back of your hand or direct in the nose, I prefer the second way. If you are not sniffing will never go into your throat, it goes exactly where it should.

Very well made, robust and easy to unmount and clean. It is recomended to treat the wooden part with oil, haven´t done it yet, though.

10/10 recommendable.
