So you take a scuttle with thick walls and put hot tap water in and the heat is simply used up trying to heat those thick walls which also acts as an insulator and barrier. Thin walls heat much faster while still staying warm a long time. They way I think of it thin walled scuttles are best for tap or even microwaved boiling water while thick walled ones do best with very hot water or some type of pre heating. I can only tell you I have the G-5 and it simply does not last very long. My Oskar scuttle by comparison keeps the lather warm forever with simple tap water. It is a function of water quantity and wall thickness. It will be interesting to see how the new Georgetown holds up. They certainly are lookers.

The scuttles we ( Greg n I ) are developing have thinner "inner bowl" walls, we test ours in the microwave and a 45 sec - 1min zap will keep the lather very warm for the duration of the shave ( 3 passes and touch up,s ) my point is ...we incourage microwaving it

Sorry I haven't had time to get good pics, but to prove it does exist

You can totally microwave the Georgetown Pottery scuttle. All the pottery is microwave, oven and dishwasher safe (even the scuttle).

Nice peace:

Enjoy for long time. You can try also for the future the Moss Scuttle Texan one. I have one and it works perfect with the lather and heat.

thanks

I just ordered a G20 yesterday. Just got a shipping notification and tracking number this morning. I got so frustrated trying to use an oversized Starbucks coffee mug, that I started mixing the lather in my cupped hand -- works rather well, but adds steps to the whole process, and provides no warmth.
