@cramcake2 Nice vids man, its great to see what other people make videos about 
Power to the SnuffTubers!
Second video is out Here is the link Again, any tips/requests just holler at me and I’ll work on them. Tin video coming soon Tin Video Up now, link HERE
@gewie I just remembered a better word for food themed snuffs: gourmand.
@Xander very nice word I will endeavour to use it today in a sentence 
Thanks man
@Gewie Good vids there, you’re off to a great start. I like the way the vids are presented to those who know very little, and wish I’d found something like this as a reference when I first started. Keep it up :-bd Just an aside, and not a suggestion by any means, my own personal categories are … Menthol/Medicated - which I tend to avoid unless I’m really congested. “Medicinal” use only Toasts (and Scotches I suppose) - which I can only use occasionally if I am congested. There’s a fine line for me between being able to use a toast and having to use menthol Floral - I like the occasional pinch, but not regular use. They can be overwhelming for me SP/Plain - These are what my favourites/primaries tend to be (especially the coarser grinds). Generally the higher nic content too. Flavoured - Generally food/drink scents. A myriad of wonderful snuffs to accompany a primary snuff and brighten up your day. Generally lower nic content, but some real treats for your nose all the same
@50ft_trad That makes much more sense, I’ll make sure to refer to them that way in future videos. I’m planning on making a techniques video tomorrow, would there be anything you would have wanted to see as a beginner? Want to include as much helpful hints as I can.
@Gewie That’s just how I classify snuffs, and someone else might have a better suggestion. As for future themes, different snuffing techniques might be useful - pinch, spoon, bullet, boxcar, back of hand etc. Which technique you use for which snuff and why. Sizes of pinch you take. A comparison between GH/SG snuff in tap boxes (dried out) and fresh so people can see the importance of correct storage. Different storage methods. Hydration techniques. There’s a heap of different topics you could delve into
Just added my techniques vid here Do you guys think it would be interesting to make one of people taking snuff for the first time(friends and family of mine)?
@50ft_trad just added my Hydration Video
You’re showing how do particular snuffs look like! Just keep it doing! Subscribed!
@Viertel thanks man, will do!
Added a strange attempt at making my own, sort of worked! http://youtu.be/scuvA3vqhoI
I like the video, its making me want to grind my own snuff- i failed miserably last time, the grains felt too ‘sharp’ if you know what i mean… i was told to try adding a little moisture as i grind next time when it nears the grind i want, just to round out the edges. Nice looking Razer gear you got there too haha, Deathadder and Vespula? i use Abyssus and Sphex. nice stuff. you game?
haha yep, and the keyboard is MERC Stealth. Sometimes swap mice as I have a Cyborg RAT7 too although I need to sort my PC out as it need updating desperately. Started off playing WoW and then got into some more serious FPS gaming. Now I don’t dare buy the latest FPS games as I don’t think they’ll run all that well, so mainly play WoW, DOTA2 and just started on the hearthstone Beta.
I suppoes here is as good a place as any to ask whilst we’re on the topic of grinding your own snuff. As I understand it, cigars and pipe tobacco give off an alkaline smoke, and cigarettes give off an acidic smoke, which is what leads the nicotine to be absorbed in the mouth or lungs respectively. Shag tobaccos have been used as pipe tobacco but also by people rolling their own cigarettes, but I’m unsure of the alkalility there :-? How does snuff fare in all this? Obviously there is no combustion, but will snuff be “effective” from certain tobaccos but not from others, and are there ways for the home grinder to ensure the snuff “works”. Obviously the snuff can be scented at home, but what about making sure it’s compatible with the mucous membranes it settles upon. I might be looking way too deeply at this, but I’m just not sure I understood what the mechanics of this are, and didn’t feel I had cause to ask till now. I do have a few pipe tobaccos that are unlikely to get smoked (tried the pipe thing - but haven’t really clicked with it), but is just grinding it, sieving it and sticking up my nose enough?
Well it is probably luck of the draw on which tobaccos might irritate mucus membrane etc, however as I showed in the video all I have done is very simple, and after leaving it to hydrate overnight I now have a coarse interesting cherry snuff. It tastes ok…I mean it’s not close to being up to standards I would say that are great, but its snuffable and like anything you have made yourself it’s always a bit more special. Having said all that I’m sure there are ways to go about making it that are much more complex and would create a much more higher quality product. W/R to the acid alkaline, I have no idea, someone with more knowledge will have to add their input on that
Sorry if I confused issues :-S my post was less to do with getting a good grind/scent/nose feel etc, and more to do with bioavailability of nicotine from homemade snuff … or was at least meant to be 
I can’t imagine one tobacco being more or less effective at transferring the nicotine, if it has a high nicotine content I would expect it to make a high nic snuff.
a little bicarb or sodium carbonate (about 1-3% i believe, so not much) mixed in with water is apparently the way to go. Red here for more detail. http://snuffhouse.vanillaforums.com/discussion/6043/baking-soda

Not from what I can glean. Just because a snuff is high in nic - doesn’t mean your nose will be effective at getting at it. It’s the alkilinity (I believe) that reacts with the membranse to effectively transfer it, but you have to get it right so you don’t burn your face off 
Not sure if there’s a litmus test (or similar) which will help optimise this :-?
