Jag och en kompis har pratat om att försöka göra eget luktsnus med olika "smaker" (eller aromer, blir det väl) och jag gissade att råtobak var rätt ände att börja i.
En sökning i ämnet ledde till denna sida där det står så här:
Det lät ju verkligen ruskigt enkelt!It is very easy to make your own snuff. All you need to do is grind your tobacco in a pepper mill or coffee grinder until you have a fine powder. If you have a good coffee grinder, you should be able to make your snuff with one pass through the grinder. If you are only trying out snuff, you could break open an ordinary cigarette and grind the tobacco from that, although you should remember that this will be full of chemicals. Far better to grow your own tobacco without the chemicals.
Before making your own snuff using home grown tobacco, you should make sure your tobacco is dried and cured. You should also crush your tobacco in your hand into small pieces about the size of tea leaves and remove any dry, woody bits. You can use any part of the tobacco leaf for your own snuff. Cheaper commercial snuff uses the stem or mid-rib of the tobacco leaf while the more expensive commercial snuff uses the small, young leaf of the Virginia tobacco plant. I recommend that you use Virginia tobacco as the nicotine content is about 3 times that of Havanna. You may wish to mix your tobacco to create a snuff that suits you.
Så min fråga till er med erfarenhet av råtobak/snus - kan jag bara köpa råtobak, mala den superfint och "krydda" och - färdigt?
Eller är det något annat viktigt jag borde tänka på?
Många tack på förhand!
