How many cans do you have open at one time?

Re: How many cans do you have open at one time?

Just curious. I'm about to put in my second order for some of the other brands I'd like to try, but when it comes around to my next order after that, I want to make the bulk of it my favorites of the previous two. Only thing is, I already have about six cans open as it is, and I don't want any of it to go bad before I can finish them...

Surprisingly, I actually have the same amount of tins open now as I did back in January. :lol:

The rate at which I go through those tins now.....well, that's a much different story. :shock:

None of my snus is dry.

I like having choices. At any different moment, I might want something sweet, I might NOT want something sweet, I might want something strong.

But to each their own. But for myself, I tend to get bored of the same snus over and over again.

[Snusærn]

It's just idiotic to have more than 1 can open at the time. :P
It makes the snus dry, even when you have it freezed.

Yeah sure. Or, as you get more "accustomed", you will open up even more. At least that was the way it worked for me.

I'm pretty new to the Snus thing, but by practicing a little self control (after 3 orders from Buysnus in 3 weeks), I've managed to open only 12 or so tins. When I get more accustomed to this "hobby" I look forward to cutting that number down a little.

I am really trying to just finish some of what I have open which is 8 cans, but did have 13, before I open anymore new.

[sagedil]

LOL, I just read my reply from back in January, then I was really good and only kept two open. Now, my how things have changed, Right now, I have 14 cans open. I have so many in the refrigerator, I am always knocking one or two out as I get something else out. I really am trying to cut it down, but then will suddenly feel the need to open something new, so they never seem to really go away.

Im a newbie snuser, so I only have 1 portion can open. I am getting some new flavors and brands this week so I will more than likely open some others.

I keep it in the fridge and use an empty can for my daily allowance

[exexpat93]

Many...

I am sampling so I had up to 5 open - now down to 3.

When I start running low on a can I mix and combine.

Tobacco Flavor with Mint and other Tobacco flavors.
Citrus with Citrus.
Coffee with Coffee.

If a brand is too tart (hardcore tobacco taste or heavy citrus) when I first start I add a pinch of sugar substitute to the can until I get used to the flavor alone.

I have about 6 cans of different snus in my fridge. I like to shift them around a bit. Still trying to find ones I like. Don't worry about them going bad. As long as you keep them cool, they last for months.

One can of loose, and one can of portions. I don't refrigerate open cans. The loose lasts about 9 days and the portions about 4 days. Since I use portions more than los, because of my work environment, they never drys out. I it is interesting to see how some los progress to dry out over time. Some times its a good thing. I like probe, but when it is fresh it tends to flatten out fast and get little slimmy. After about 6 days it stays together much better, but with a little loss of flavor. Now, Skruf Stark dies fast and need refrigeration. Gotlandssnus Gulsnus (Yellow) Loose seems to stay consistant the whole time. So i think there is some thing to be said about opening one can of los at a time and analyzing how it holds up start to finish unrefrigerated.

Also with constant use you may find a change of opinion by the time you get to the end. I liked Gotlandssnus Gulsnus (Yellow) Loose a lot at frist, but found it started reminding me of cow manure by the end of the can.

I have strayed from my 1 portion, 1 loose method as of lately. I currently have 2 portion and 3 loose.

[Gurn Blandston]

10!!! 7 loose, 3 portions.

Holy beans. I just like having alot of options. I tire of anything if I use it too much, even Ettan. Roda Lacket I really like. You can bake this stuff with both arms tied behind your back. When I use RL I use it all day, then ignore it for 2 or 3.

I got a can of Onyx portions that I don't really care for, some Tranbar for occasions when I'm especially fruity.

I do notice loose gets crumbly after being open awhile, but it's no biggy to me. The flavor gets a little subtler too. One could say weaker but I'm a glass is half full guy and choose to say subtler...

I think that when I finally get into the groove of things, I'm going to settle on three cans at a time.

One for regular, everyday use at work
One of the strong ones for occasional use
One of the foofoo flavored ones for after dinner or relaxing

I have already noticed that the cans I have open are starting to mellow out as far as flavor, but most are white portion, so it's not too bad.

[littledog]

I guess i am just a snus ho. Can't wait to try out the next can.


19 cans open, are you serious, littledog?

I guess, these are these all brands, that you don't like and only keep as a backup, in the freezer!?

I personally have 3 cans open most of the time, 2 portions (Skruf Stark and some other brand) and one loose (different brands).
