2nd batch of snus ever

[Big dipper]

The first time I made it I put light flavoring ( licorice powder in it after I insta potted it.. it is ok.
Today I'm trying it again but I added the licorice powder and a little dab of soy sauce before the cook. I wonder if it will be fit to dip. I was thinking that cooking the flavors may have a positive influence. I guess we will see.
I will be adding the soda ash and glycerin after the cook.. wish me luck.

It was ok too. The Nico strength seems way strong..
I mixed them two batches together.
They are made with Tenessee dark fire cured whole leaf tobacco.
I am wondering how long I need to air out before I dip.
Or is that even necessary.

i usually wait 24hr on newly cooked jars, mostly because of procrastinating and cooking when im pretty much out already. but thats up to you, waiting is for taste/smell not a hard reason like you have to. but i take a jar when still hot at sterile temps, take the lid off, put a coffee filter on and screw the ring part of the lid over the filter, then let it sit for a day and off gas, then after i set the lid flat on top and keep it in fridge. that way it can breathe through the filter still but isnt loosing moisture too fast. but thats just what i do
