Some hardware that may help to improve my lather:

Water is very hard where I live, so I use water from a bottle to make my lather, and if I put my bowl in top of the kettke, it will maintain it warm:

Good tip, thanks. Hot lather is the best!!

You can also fill your sink with hot water and put the cup in the sink to keep it warm.
