Hello, I just started an experiment in which I use two Identical cans of Los weight Swedish Snus in different environments to determine which storage procedure works better to preserve the freshness of snus tobacco.
Fancy!
I purchased two cans of KNOX, my favorite cheap los snus, both of which are from the same lot and have the same freshness date on the can.
The can marked with the X will be put in the freezer for storage when not used and the other will be put in the meat section of my refrigerator.
When I try the snus, one can will be pulled out and let stand to come up to room temperature. Once the can is at room temperature, I will open the can and take note of the following:
Smell, Taste, Texture, Moisture Content, color and finish. The finish will be my best explanation of how the snus develops and tastes up until I dispose of it.
The snus will be baked in identical fashion and will be consumed for the same amount of time.
I assume that the one in the freezer will become dry and taste worse than the one in the fridge. This deterioration will be caused by crystallization of the organic material. The crystals will shred the organic matter and break the substance down far faster than if kept at the suggested storage temperature.
If you have any other ideas or indicators you can think of, let me know and I will add it in to the "research".
I have a video showing the process on youtube, enjoy!
