Nanso CCGen is a refillable capsule system created by the Polish lab Nanso Lab in 2023. Each shipment contains 120 soft-cellulose pods shaped like a mini cushion. The walls are 0.22 mm thick, porous enough to release nicotine within 60 seconds yet strong enough to prevent the drip that ruins white pouches. Users pack the pods with loose nicotine salt, plant fibers, or even crushed mint leaves, then press the pre-cut lid to lock the blend inside. The result is a custom slim portion that fits exactly like market-leading brands but costs one-third of the price.
The kit ships in a flat tin the size of a playing-card box. Inside you find a tiny dosing spoon, 120 pods, and a humidity pack calibrated to 48 % relative moisture. That pack keeps the cellulose elastic for twelve months, so the pods never crack when you fold the lid. A QR code on the base links to a batch report: heavy metals under 0.03 ppm, zero nitrosamines, and microbial count below 50 cfu/g. Those numbers satisfy both German food law and Swedish snus safety standards, giving DIY mixers the same quality data that big factories publish.
Filling technique needs no extra tools
Scoop 0.5 g of dry blend into the open pod, tap the spoon twice, then close the membrane with one finger. The seal holds up to 6 kg of vertical pressure, verified by a university tensile test published in Nicotine & Tobacco Research 2024. Once sealed, the pod can sit on a shelf for eight weeks without measurable nicotine loss. Reviewers on Reddit’s r/nicpouch sub credit Nanso CCGen for letting them taper strength week by week: start at 20 mg/g, drop to 12 mg, then land at 6 mg without buying three separate rolls.
Flavor layering works because the cellulose is neutral in taste. Add a drop of food-grade menthol solution to the spoon, swirl for five seconds, and the pod carries a cool burst equal to commercial ice variants. Fruit esters follow the same rule: 0.05 ml of strawberry concentrate aromatizes ten pods, cutting flavour cost to €0.01 per portion. One Stockholm bartender even injects 0.02 ml of single-malt whisky extract for a smoky night-cap pouch, posting the recipe to his blog and driving a 300 % spike in Nanso CCGen sales during December.
Environmental math also wins. A standard roll contains ten plastic cans and ten foil seals. With Nanso CCGen you buy one reusable tin and refill it 24 times, eliminating 240 cans per year for a daily user. The cellulose itself is compostable: bury a used pod in garden soil and 70 % degrades within 90 days, according to Polish biotech lab tests. Urban consumers toss the spent pods into food-waste bins where city composting plants finish the job, turning yesterday’s nicotine capsule into tomorrow’s park fertilizer.
Retail price hovers at €9.90 for 120 pods, enough for 60 g of finished product. Compare that to €5.50 per can for premium 20-pouch brands and the savings climb above 60 %. Bulk boxes of 1 000 pods drop the unit cost to €0.06 each, attracting small-batch vendors who sell artisan mixes at farmers’ markets. Every box still carries the same QR-linked lab report, so buyers know the capsule quality never drifts.
Shipping is discreet: a plain bubble mailer that fits through a letterbox, no customs drama because empty cellulose is classed as food-grade material. Age verification applies only when you add nicotine salt at home, placing responsibility on the mixer rather than the capsule vendor. From cost control to flavor freedom, Nanso CCGen turns the kitchen table into a private micro-factory, giving white-pouch fans full command over strength, taste, and environmental footprint.
