I like the taste of Ettan. However, I can't get a long lasting pris with it from my Icetool. Within minutes it turns very soft and oozes onto my teeth. Is this common amongst Ettan users?
Ettan Pris Turns to Mush

Ettan is a very salty brand, that easily soaks up saliva. The best use is, to form a very tight pris and to leave it totally alone, preferably as near to the front-teeth, as possible.
But well, that's the traditional Swedish way. Since I really love, to poke the prillas with my tongue, and to place them a bit more towards the cheek, I have the same problems, that you have, so I just put the prillas in place again with my tongue, when they start to get 'runny'.
Cheers!

I had the same problem as you when I first sank my gums into the glory of Ettan Lös. But chainsnuser is exactly right. You've got to bake it really, really tight and leave it alone as best you can. The flavor may take a little bit longer to reveal itself this way, but if you just leave it alone and let it run its natural course, the flavor will come and your pris won't collapse. Just yesterday I had a pris of Ettan in for over an hour and it barely ran at all. I felt very accomplished.

I had an Ettan pris in for an hour and a half today before it started going liquid. You'll get the hang of it eventually.
If it helps at all, I had it slightly right of center. I always put the pris either slightly left or right of center. Dead center is uncomfortable and I find it a lot easier to control the loose when it's still in front, but slightly off to either side. Try this if you haven't already. Ever since I've fallen into this groove, I won't have my loose any other way.

Two and a half hours? Jeebus, that's insane. The longest I've ever had a loose in was and unintentional 4 hours with a lip full of Goteborgs Rape. Reason being, I fell asleep. I woke up and somehow it was still in perfect shape. Go figure.
But seriously, you should feel very accomplished. The day I can keep a pris of Ettan in for over two hours is the day I can truly call myself a pris master.
