    This! Just bake it into a ball and shove it up there, stuff like Röda Lacket and Prima Fint are the easiest to learn with, and they also taste good. Hand baked prillas also tend not to be as compacted as icetool prillas etc so mold to your gum easier I find.

    Really one of the keys is to let your upper lip get used to having something in it....this might take a few months of regular use

    after a while when you reflex to stop pushing it out subsides..... mudslides become far less of a problem......in turn precision baking becomes less important.......pinch and shove will work just fine at that point.

    This is above all the best information, nothing new comes naturally.........snus on.

    Hello all - newbie here - just found this site. Nice to find snus lovers on the web.

    Snus (General brand, loos at home and white portion when I'm out) got me to quit smoking, and even if I've traded mouth cancer for lung cancer, my friends all appreciate not having to smell me.

    My trick to hand-rolling a pris was to use less pressure when creating the "ball". The harder you try to form it, the more it crumbles. It's almost like you have let it form itself - give the moisture in the loos enough time to gel it all together. I hardly ever use my prismaster anymore, unless I'm on my last container, it's all dried up, but I'm desperate for a hit.

    Hope this helps someone master the hand roll! Although most of you seem like experts already.
    I would just like to state that there is apparently no link between using snus and getting any type of oral cancer. So snus away!
    And welcome to SnusOn!

This method is the old school way of doing it, but I prefer it since my lip doesn't bulge. As well, the snus will conform to the shape of your gums and won't stick onto your teeth as much.
    This method has worked best for me. I've used a ghetto tool and could only get about half an hour or so out of a pris. I tried packing it tight, loose, just couldn't get it to work. I tried it like this and I'm at over an hour now. Thanks, snusjus!

    I have my first successful hand-baked prilla of Roda Lacket in. Tastes much better than the ghetto icetool one last night.

    I might be getting the hang of this los business

    Noted. I've got a can of Ettan on order, but will deffo get a Grov too as I like the portions.

    Nice one, I'll bear that in mind.

    I got about 25-30 minutes out of that before it started to slide down. Tried to push it back up with a finger edge, but it started to fall apart - although from what I've read, that's not uncommon for RL.

    If it wasn't time to go to bed, I'd be up for another one

    Cheers all, snuson!

I'm finding it quite easy to leave it alone compared to a portion because it's much more comfortable under my lip.

    Not getting much in the way of flavour, maybe because I'm so used to squeezing the hell out my portions, maybe because it's Roda Lacket and I'm not used to it, or maybe because it's packed so tight.

    Ettan's in the post, can't wait to try that!

    Thanks for tips Jagmanss, the blowing air manoeuvre works a treat

    The beauty of los and an Icetool is that the snus will last much longer. It usually takes 20 minutes for me to start getting flavor out of it, unless I push some saliva up there. I can routinely keep a prilla in for upwards of 90 minutes with very little disintegration and constant nic flow. Regular portions start to drip within 5 minutes, so it is definitely a different experience.
