Homemade snus

No.11914368 ViewReplyOriginalReport
Im making a test batch from tobacco flour (only 30g) to test if it would turn out any good. First time making snus at home, i know it's supposed to be a long process but since i'm making such a small quantity can i skip some of the time or will it not work out properly?
Recipe i'm following says it should be 24 hours in 85°C oven before sodium carbonate and 8 after.
Am i greedy if i do only 8 hours before and 2 after or something similar? What would be the right amount of time?
