Does the plug help keep the scuttle water hotter? I use something similar to the following https://www.etsy.com/listing/2803311...=sr_gallery_11 but the water gets lukewarm pretty quickly. I usually refill it after my first pass (the bottom portion), relather, and then repeat after my XTG pass.
I want to believe it does. ;)
My G-20 holds up for whole shave with 140F tap water.
When I want HOT, it's easy to put on a tea kettle, that'sa Hot'a wat'a. Careful though.
Have you tried pre warming it? Fill the top and bottom with hot water for a few minutes, tip out and refil the bottom?Quote:

As for the plug, it does help prevent heat loss from the water, it also prevents water spillage while lathering.
Overall, I would rate it as a very good scuttle; it would be an excellent scuttle if the bowl was a bit larger.
