Dear all, to give you a short overview, my name is Alex and I’m from the south of Germany. I’m the inventor and owner of the SNUFFMASTER. Maybe someone heard about it. I read some discussions about the Snuffmaster in this forum. I take snuff tobacco since approx. 8 years and therefore I thought about a comfortable kind of snuffing. I made several drawings and built up the Snuffmaster step by step. After a lot of positive feedback I decided to produce it for everyone who wants one, or maybe more The Snuffmaster is a snuff machine, snuff box and snuff dispenser in one single, practical and stylish device. A must for every snuff enthusiast. By pressing a button, the snuffmaster allows reloading by way of the integrated storage tank. It also allows direct snuffing, as well as an exact dosing of the snuff on the back of the hand. The lid is hold by magnets for easy removal. Snuffmaster is made of aluminium and is availabe in blue, red, green and black anodised. If you are interested, please check my page or maybe you want to “like” me on facebook. www.schnupfmaschine.com www.snuffmachine.com www.facebook.com/Snuffmaster Additionally the following links could help to understand how it works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player\\_embedded&v=HJwSU8wGdsw http://www.vidup.de/v/QRtlp/ http://www.vidup.de/v/r9hJz/ Please feel free to ask me everything you want. Many thanks in advance BR Alex
Will you please invent one that shoots the snuff up into my nostrils. Thank you.
interesting
you mean with an integrated spring?
Is it like a double bullet where you’re basically sniffing from two chambers. Or does it deliver two doses on to the back of your hand for sniffing from there? It doesn’t seem practical for snuffers who have a deviated septum, which is very common (I have for instance so need to be able to sniff extra hard with that nostril). It’s a sexy looking instrument, I’ll say that, but I like getting my fingers stuck in and taking big fat juicy pinches the traditional manly way Good luck. I wish you every success and hope your customers enjoy using your product.

I have an idea, maybe it is realizable The problem is that you ahve to fill with snuff before every shot

thanks for the wishes. Till the customers like it. A lot of them told me that they never leave the house without If you will watch the videos posted above, you can see that it is possible to have two doses on your hand or you snuff directly from the Snuffmaster with your nose. I prefer this, because the snuff deploys better in the nose. I don’t know if it is well for people with deviated septum. You have to try it
I suggest you get some beta testers. And let me just say I have lots of experience testing things. hehehhehehe Ken
i have no experience testin things, but would love to learn and develop my skills i too would like something that fires the snuff up there for me, so i dont have to flick my spoon and injure myself/spray it everywhere.

Will come pack to you. First of all I have to design and build it
in the meanwhile you should test your skills wish the snuffmaster. snuffing directly with the nose burns
also, the ability to make it one hole only might be useful.
you can close one hole by youself without any problems
I will start at saturday and maybe I can show a first model
As an owner of your current model i would love to see a newer model good luck to you Alex
@RealSnuffmaster do you have a Poschl automatik box to looks at. I dont have one, but i’ve read and seen (on youtube) that they work well. Looking forwards to recieving my snuffmaster, thanks.

Hi, if you are D.H. you will receive the snuffmaster in the next days. I brought it to the post office last saturday. No, I don’t have such a box but I have seen it on youtube. I think the function is the same as the snuffmaster. I have designed a new machine but I’m to stupid to upload pictures. could someone send me a mail how to do it many thanks
I designed a new Snuff machine. You can fill the both cylinder with snuff and shoot it in your nose in cause of the integrated spring. It’s just a design study and also the name will change. What do you think?
For those who are interested: The SNUFFMASTER summer special will end mid of september
@RealSnuffmaster I like your new design concept there. In your opinion, will that machine work well for courser snuffs like Taxi or NTSU? I’d love to be able to fill the machine and jam a huge portion of Taxi Red into one or both nostrils and sit back and enjoy the ride
Great little device, both original model and the new design. I will most likely order one next month. Keep up the good work @RealSnuffmaster!
Got my snuffmaster a few days ago and so far so good. Works very nicely. While it is a bit pricey i think its worth it for the long term snuffer (i dont begrudge the cost as it is always more expensive with limited runs or more esoteric products like this). I use it as a double bullet and have found pushing it somewhat firmly to the nose provides good control and it doesnt goes to far up like most bullets do. It also doesnt have that high pitched whistle from the air holes that most bullets seem to have. Personally, i think if your mildly interested you should grab one as esoteric products like this come and go and once they are gone you’ll wish you had one.
@RealSnuffmaster I noticed on your site a statement saying that excessive snuff use can lead to serious health problems, like what? I just ordered a black one anyway
The heartbreak of brown boogers?
As for your new Snuff machine that shoots snuff up into ones nose, well I wish I had something like that now. I have a very bad cold, so all though dynamite helps, it was hard getting it up in my nose in the first place. I really did need something to shoot it up in my nose

Don’t know if it work. Currently it is just a 3D model

For sure snuff is not good for health. But which problems it could cause I don’t know. i have to write such things down for this product Thanks for buying the snuffmaster. have fun with it

Haven’t one at the moment. Hope you get well soon
How long do these take to get to the U.S.?
should take 5-7 days
Woo hoo! My Snuffmaster arrived today…

Hope you like it
Unlike this machine, the essential moving parts of my fingers are sealed so they can’t get clogged with snuff, plus they allow the quantity/speed of snuff delivered to be varied according to grind and moisture content. My current storage facilities for the snuff prior to delivery have what appears to be a larger storage capacity, plus doesn’t conduct heat to the snuff as quickly. Neither does current storage or fingers cost 40 Euros per flavour/snuff carried - although in fairness the running costs for my fingers tends to be quite high in terms of food and alcohol, amongst other things - but then again, I’d still have those running costs with this machine too. Good luck with the business, but I think I’ll stick to pinching.
Good idea but a knife tip works for me
There are no absolutes when it comes to snuff, it is all subjective. For me, if one uses gizmos to take a pinch, the whole ritual loses it’s charm.
@howdydave My God man, we agree on something ^^^^^

For sure is the snuffmaster not suitable for everyone. Everyone has to decide for himself how he enjoys the tobacco. Some people running to work, another takes the bike and still another the car. each of its optional. A lot of peaople like it. criticism can be constructive Anyway, thanks for your wished.
I have been using mine for a little over two weeks now. Highlights: Fantastic build quality. One handed use … easy and intuitive. Doesn’t leak. Good sized storage. Cons: Price … but actually not when you look at the quality. Lid is tightly attached with magnets. You must really mean it to get the lid off. But it is definitely secure! 
I have ordered a second one already from Mr. Snuff.
I purchased one of these, after reading the discussion here. Despite the relative snobby sounding remarks from people who automatically assume that there is some reason to state that pinching snuff is some sort of magic ritual, or more manly, or for what ever reasons you have. But I work around a lot of dirt, and I like to drive places. My hands get dirty, and covered in crap. Don’t get me wrong because a pinch has been tried and true to work great, I guess. But its kind of a mess, especially while driving, or while working when my hands are covered in dirt and are dry and cracked. So, im not sure what kind of manly jobs you have, or what kind of crappy devices clog, or you cant figure out, or you dont like any particular snuff that matches the chamber that comes with the devices. Or have had problems with little devices that do not deliver enough snuff efficiently in the past. Or whats so magical about getting a pinch of powder all in my cracked calloused fingers, and all over my nose. With that being said, I have only used the snuffmaster for a short period, but immediately it has been great. Unlike bullets, which you have to bang on a surface to get the little cup to fill up this thing fills two large chambers immediately with the press of a button. I use it one nostril at a time, and when im on the go both nostrils is a rush, and sometimes I dump a pinch out, just to see how much comes out. But rarely any more, it delivers a huge snuff, completely effortless. With hundreds of different snuffs out there, there are probably some that are too moist (none of the ones I have are) this may not be the device for you. Coarseness doubtfully will be an issue. But there is no need to talk about how your poor experience with other devices compares to the snuffmaster. And my girlfriend snorts snuff, she uses a dainty little snuff spoons, im not sure this is a girly device at all. In fact its solid and you could keep it clenched in a fist fight, if thats not manly enough. The magnets are strong, the device is very well made. Plus, it works beyond the expectations. Its a little bigger than a box or ozona style dispenser, but so much easier to use. At least while out driving or in public places. Thanks for the great invention!
I travel alot, sometimes four times a week, and i judge snufftaking methods by its stealth, and this one is the winner. Yes it cost 10 times a bullet but still, it gives ten times of snuff at a time, and stores ten times a snuff for a bullet. worth every penny for me.
i see that snuffmaster many times on internet but never thought that it is about snuff because of its shape. I was thinking it as “Apple” logo. Anyway i would like to try it in discreet situations. 
i use snuffmaster almost a month. Pros: 1-no leakage 2-good capasity aprox. 4 grams 3-delivers the right amount of snuff (for me) both nostrils at the same time 4-i have deviation sanctum but doesn’t effects at all, one nostril takes the snuff a little bit quicker but no throat or sinus hit (of course i don’t snort) 5- suitable for finer to schmalzler but the best is with non schmalzler german snuffs IMO 6-it is big but discreet indeed 7-no need to tap, just shake and press the button when snuffmaster is 45 degrees down. 8-of course it is well made. 9-very easy using with one hand even driving or walking in public. Cons: 1-a little bit heavy 2-i keep it away from my mobile phone, car keys etc because of the magnets 3-could be made in rectangular shape at buttom for holding more ergonomical 4-body could be plastic and the magnets could be glued or the lid could be built as slide lid 5-it is expensive but worths Overall i like it a lot and i use it everyday.

Many thanks for your Pros and Cons: In a view weeks/month the snuffmaster is available made of plastic and cheaper
I ordered one from your ebay store. Is mine metallic ? I havent received it yet
Gadgetophobic, I can just about manage an 18th C snuff box, but I am convinced by this. Why is it unavailable (but listed) on Amazon.co.uk?
the Snuffmaster lite is available now. It is more cheap but has the same functions. www.snuffmachine.com
Why is this called a snuff machine? Does it also grind? I understand the storage and dispensing functions…
What is the approximate capacity in grams and is it relatively air tight? Thanks.
This gimmick brought to you by…
It seems like very person who tries this device and posts about it gave it a positive review. There are some comments of disinterest from people who don’t like the idea of it and don’t want to use it. But, no negative reviews from anyone that’s tried it.
I haven’t tried it. I like pinching, back of hand, and a snuff spoon. And I’ve mastered all three of them, regardless of where I’m at (home, work, car). But, I can see how someone might want to use this “thing”…and of all the “things” out there, this seems like a pretty nice “thing.”

@markstinson not so fast there buddy. Let’s see you take snuff of the back of your hand while skydiving, riding a motorcycle, or driving a NASCAR stock car
LOL. Well, two out of three ain’t bad.
Mark
pics or it never happened
Challenge accepted…
I love this site
I have 2 Snuffmasters. They work perfectly with moderately dry less clumpy snuffs irregardless of the grind. For more moist snuffs you just shake then a bit like you would a tapbox and they usually deliver perfectly. When the snuff only or mainly comes from one hole you take the lid off and break up the clumpage with a snuff spoon or toothpick or you find out that you are almost out of snuff. I love them!
How well does it work when dispensing straight into the nose ?
786 This sounds like just the thing for slaughter-day! I usually use bullets so blood and grossness doesn’t get in my snuff–chickens smell way worse on the inside than the outside–but I never really got the hang of them (bullets, not chickens). The force required to get the snuff to my nose sends it to my lungs more often than not. I think I may very well start saving up for one. Thanks for all the reviews guys.
I’ve had mine a few days. It is heavy (I maybe should have gone for the plastic one). Its a good seal. Its extremely well made. The design makes it a little difficult to hold comfortably.
I’ve only tried it with 2 snuffs. The first was a gingerbread snuff, very fine and dry. It dispensed a lot of snuff but worked everytime. The second is Ozone Orange. This is where I have problems. Its a moist snuff, tends to clump a bit. So sometimes I get nothing, sometimes I get irregular small amounts, others very large amounts. I’ll persist a while longer and try different types of snuff. I may buy one of the smaller dispenser units to fit in and try. At the moment I still prefer using a small tin…
I’ve had one (plastic) for a little bit. Only used it with Berwick Brown, as it seemed to be the best Toque I had (ordered from Toque) that wasn’t too fine of a grind. Handy, but takes some getting used to. Easy to over-sniff, and can seem to give me a bit too big of a hit that goes too far up if I put it to my nose for a double dose. I like it though. Very creative.
I recently got 3 of these gadgets. Two plastic and one aluminium. I must say that after trying all types of bullets, tapboxes, spoons and snorters, these are probably the best modern gadgets, very practical and clean. I still use the fliptop boxes and the fat straw ( which remains my favourite ) but after one week with the snuffmasters I could only say that it is definitely worth having at least one for any snuff aficionado. As they include magnets, they can be easily attached to any metallic surface, I keep one clipped on the kitchen fridge, one under the livingroom table and one on my bed’s headboard. Highly recommended, especially for those who cand afford clean fingers any time they fancy a fast sniff. Very well designed piece of artillery.
Does the plastic one retain a lot of odor?
Don’t worry, you will not smell the material
Could all these guys who like the Snuffmaster do my a big favour? It would be very helpfull for me if you can leave a positive feedback on my homepage www.snuffmachine.com and www.amazon.de, www.amazon.com. Thank you so much
@RealSnuffmaster I was just wondering if pungent snuffs leave behind an odor in the plastic. I’ve had some that leech into acrylic bullets.
I had never an issue with this. Therefore you should have no problem
The Snuffmaster seems like it could be convenient and effective dispenser, but I’d want to have a couple of questions answered.
How long will snuff stay fresh in the Snuffmaster (to what extent is it air-tight)?
Can it be disassembled to be cleaned on the inside? This would be important when changing from one snuff to another since the scent of a previous snuff will otherwise linger.
What grinds and moisture levels are suitable for its use? Snuff bullets (which possible use a similar mechanism) are more effective toward the dryer, finer range.
@SammyD13 thanks I have the same questions. Very interested in a versatile solution for driving, etc. I like the double-nostril idea and purportedly quality build
Hi guys. I just started using the abs plastic snuffmaster this week. It functions exactly as described. The only one-handed snuff dispenser that is available as far as I know. Pocket sized and built with powerful magnets, the top comes off exposing the complete interior for refilling. So yes it is very easy to clean. I cannot say the snuffmaster is airtight but there is an extremely tight plastic to plastic fit due to the strong magnets. It does not leak and I have been using finely ground snuff. The price is right for the clever design and excellent build quality. I ordered 3, one of each color, and it was only 3.50 EUR for shipping to the US. Hope that answers your questions.
@tinhuey thanks very much. One more question please: does it effectively dispense snuffs with higher moisture and coarser grinds?
I’ve been using the Snuffmaster for over a year now, I hope my experience will be helpful for some. Firstly, after trying number of different boxes, dispenser, bottles, flask etc I can confidently say that Snuffmaster is a level up when it comes to ease of use. I have two metal and two abs Snuffmasters. The metal one has solid feel, strong magnets and optional push bars with different size and number of bores. The lid fits very tight to the body, the magnets are protruding on the box and recessed on the lid which makes a solid contact without letting the lid wobble around. For dry fine snuffs I normally use the single bore option that dispense a nice single portion. Sometimes I use the double bore with the small holes to dispense two single pinch quantities snuff piles. For coarser, moist or clumpy snuffs I use the default double wide bore option with the plastic dispenser. Also I take direct sniffs from the Snuffmaster when using coarse and moist snuffs - very convenient, my favourite way. If I feel like using a spoon or taking a pinch I can do that just as easy by opening the lid. When it comes to preserving the snuff inside still performs better than most other boxes and containers I’ve tried. Depending on the snuff inside it can accommodate between 1.5 to 2.5g approx, which (again depending on the snuff) is between half and two days worth of snuffing. I have dropped both plastic and metal one on number of occasions on different surfaces and never broken anything, in fact most of the time the dispenser hasn’t even opened so no loss of snuff. Moisture retention is also good, but English type snuff does dry up a bit at the end of day 2 (no issues with Schmalzlers, nice and oily even after 3 days). Cleaning is a joke, just disassemble and run warm water on it, soft tissue to wipe and ready to go. I have never seen or experienced lingering smell from snuffs, once rinsed the Snuffmaster is like new. When using Schmalzlers however some extra tissue is required to get rid of the small quantities of oil on the inside of the device, extra 1 min in comparison to dry snuff.
@Dyson_nose thanks for the excellent information!
@SammyD13 agreed to @Dyson_nose looks like an order is … well … in order!
Where should I buy this from? I see they’re out of stock on Mr Snuff and not listed on Amazon. Do you have any active resellers?
Oh… payment via PayPal.
I wouldn’t normally go for this sort of thing, but I do a lot of gardening, and sometimes I’m not sure whether it’s snuff going up my nose or soil and bird turd.
I might give one a try. You never know, I might miss the soil and bird turd and start putting it into tins.
I just got the snuffmaster in ABS plastic and aluminum. I think they are a great tool and easy to use with one hand. They are a great sealing snuff box and dispenser which are well made. When you use directly into the nose they produce little or no mess. Think they are a great item for workers who get dirty hands, and would like a sniff of snuff without having to wash their hands, or get a bit of dirty contamination in their snuff.
@beantin would they be good for using while driving or do they need some tipping and gravity to make the snuff come out properly? Ideally it would need to work with the holes facing straight up but if it needs to be, at a minimum, flat then you’d need to tip your head back pretty far to get the right angle. Would make keeping your eyes on the road difficult!
I have an ABS Snuffmaster. Very easy to use while driving. And deer hunting too. Tip and push the bar in, tip up, release the bar and sniff.
@bizzle They are easy to use, if the snuff box compartment is filled up. I just tap then tilt with wrist, while pressing in the sliding dosser bar. Then put up to your nose. After a bit of practice it can become easy.
It also depends on your snuff. If it is a fine grind and dry you will not have to tap to fill up the dosser. With damper fluffier snuffs you may have to tap to pack the dosser hole.
