    I too have followed the "there is no too hot" setting with shaving. Granted I'm new but I really like the feel of hotter lather. If it means I have to replace on of my brushes a little sooner. I'm ok with that.
    If you don't understand my thought process, please read my mind and It will all make perfect sense and should be enlightening for the both of us.

    The water from my tap (faucet?) is set to 60C. It seems to cope.
    I read this and just spewed my favorite cold beverage on my keyboard!

    For me, warm water to make lather and cool water on the face. Not that I think hot is bad for my brush, it's just that my face gets easily irriated when I use hot water.

    Have you ever tried warm./hot ? Pre shave oil?

    Yah, I use pre-shave oil to help things along. Can't say it helps a lot but definitely doesn't hurt! As for warm/hot, I probably did a long time ago, but if I did it's been so long I don't remember. Guess I could give it a try, but hate to break my routine now. Wife always chides me for my ruts and being reluctant to change.
