Awwww man...
I was just going to bed and you have to throw this out there? Considering there isn't a "snus-stand" close, I guess I'm headed back to the store tonight -
...like I could go to sleep when the answer could have been right under our upper lip the whole time...

I've used the penstyle (Janty Kissbox) e-cig for this experiment -- and the vapor is still very good late into the evening. I have a Janty Dura, but think that cart cavity might be too small. I knew the penstyle would be fine, as would a cigar or pipe cart.
The draw isn't affected any more than having a regular filter material present.
Swedish snus, which I often order online, goes all the way to 17mg per pouch (for regular size portions; I'm using mini size). A regular pouch would be a snug fit, but might make it into a penstyle. No way do I think a regular portion would fit a mini cig cart.
A Camel snus is said to be 8mg. The mini I've been using is 6mg.
The next time I try this, I'll add a drop of Bickford Kahlua flavor.
Final note: There's a tasteless snus from Oomph that used to be called Wine and Chef and I think is now called Wine and Dine, or something like that. Very powerful nicotine hit and would not add any of its own flavor to a vapor.
And, yeah, if worse comes to worst, I could use this should liquid be banned.

T Bob..A silly question I am sure..but would P.G. be ok? And I am sure you must have vaped that first mini snuss dry by now..how long did it last? I wonder if you could soak it a second time? I was thinking a drop of favor would be nice! Did the kahlua work?
What a concept! You have a nice mind..well at least a curious one..

Eureka !!
Brilliant idea TBob.
I took the stuffing out of a cart, filled the cart with some Farmers Gold Additive Free Stuff Yer Own tobacco (just to measure how much it'd hold).
Dumped the contents into a Mr Coffee filter & twisted it into a little pouch then cut off excess with scissors.
Set the little pouch into a soup bowl & added a few drops of Everclear 150 proof and about 10 drops of PG onto the pouch & let it soak for about an hour.
Took the damp pouch & carefully stuffed it into the cart, and it works great. Even has a tobacco taste. I don't know if or how much nicotine it's delivering but it tastes good! This process even works with my herbal medication and it tastes very good too!

Way to improvise, Harry!
FYI: The words portion and pouch are interchangeable. Same thing -- little tea bag-like packs of pasteurized tobacco. Some hardcore snusers think of snus as tins of loose tobacco. I don't use it that way. Just personal preference. And it wouldn't work well if used loose in a cart.
My own soaked mini is still producing lots of vapor going into its second day. I made one attempt to add some VG, but the thing wouldn't absorb more.
PG would be even better, in my mind, because of its anti-bacterial properties, but I don't have pure PG on hand. VG can be easily bought at a health food store, so that's what I use as a fluid to make vapor.
The only snus I have on hand at the moment are from Discreet, a new brand, and all are sweet. I'd rather have other choices and will order some today. Snus with pure tobacco flavor include the Lucky Strike mini, which I often use. And I want some tasteless Wine&Dine by Oomph, so I can try flavor experiments.
Great to see others experimenting. Do post your results and/or impressions. I'm still seeing lots of vapor from this Kissbox.

That is brilliant, my gras friend!
And here I thought I was being smug because I just did a very nice tobacco absolute mix-up, very smooth, sweet and lovely bouquet, hint of mint. Damn. Gotta shop again.
Hi Kate,
What was your mixture exactly?

My guess is the Camel snus could create a roll that might fit even better than the rectangular bag I'm vaping now.
I have no idea how long this will last, but I've been using it four hours or so now.
Tbob,
Can you recommend what soaking concoction i can use since vg and pg are not so great for me? Can i soak the Came SNUS in absolut alone? Or what if i put 20% pg (causes dry throat) and 80% absolut? What do ya think?
Thanks

Snus available at

It's only the sale in the EU that is banned, buy from Sweden and it's legal, not cheap though.If you just want to try it, PM me and I can send a can to you.
