    I was going to suggest varying the amount of water. In retrospect, for months, i was using waaaaaay too much water.

    Well done. Keep experimenting with the amount of water you add to your cream/soap + glycerin mixture. I only use 2-3 drops of glycerin and get some really nice lather. And I live in a hard water area.
