Tobacco Dust - Uses

[Jahman7]

So, I've been considering using my collection of tobacco dust to create snus/dip. I have no idea how to do this, but also don't care to do a deep dive into it. I'm wondering if anyone has a quick way of creating extremely small batches of "dip" out of this dust just for some secondary enjoyment/use of what is left.

Waste not, want not :P

I don’t dip, but I have gotten in to snuff lately, and I even made a batch from some H&H BlackHouse that arrived to me dried out beyond revival. That process was as simple as grinding in a mortar & pestle, sieving to remove larger bits, and then adding an alkalizer (sodium carbonate + water).

I found the recipe here:

Okay gents, this is the last time I'm posting this recipe, so write it down and stick it in the safe with your house Title and Bond Notes. Scaled down from Juxtaposer's recipe posted on the snuff house forums. Equipment: Grinder; Mortar and pestle, coffee grinder, redneck engineered ball...

I just put it in my jaw as is. Sometimes I'll cut off a chunk of a rope to chew or ball up a flake or a coin for the same use.

Sometimes I sprinkle some shake on top of a packed bowl to serve as tinder to get the bowl lit.

Jeremy Reeves even encourages this, when he talks about his pipe filling method.

If it's extremely dry it'll flash off too quickly for any benefit as tinder.

Never experienced that, and I've sprinkle dry, dry, dry Tabac Manil shake. It works. If it doesn't, no harm.

If it’s from tobacco I like, it goes with the other crumbs from jarring, loading, portable containers, etc into my Odds and Ends jar. It “coats” the other remnants when I tumble them all together.

If I have enough left over in a jar, I'll top off the bowl I'm about to smoke. But usually too little to make much of a difference. There gotta be some meat to it to catch ember. Most are too dusty and just fly off once lit.

I scatter it out on the lawn for the sparrows.
