    Level off in bowl and let cool to room temp or refrigerate to set.
    Later is my prefered method.

    Thanks outback. Tonight I mixed a puck of Watkins with some Kirk's that lather's very good. It's outside in my subzero garage cooling down. Tomorrow I'm going to give it a test shave. If that doesn't do it I'm going to test out your recipe or a variation of it.

    Yes, bowl lather for the shot. I am otherwise a face latherer.

    Love the recipe! Sounds interesting!

    And I love the pic! That big ol black stash sticking out of the Snow White lather is priceless!

    P.S. How's your health bro? I think about my " Brothers of the Stent " occasionally!

    Just finished my morning shave with the "Soap Concoction/Cocktail Of The Day"
    SCOTD mix was a puck of Watkins and some Kirk's.
    Razor--Boker Silver Steel.
    Brush--Semogue 830 boar bristle.
    Three pass WTG, XTG, and ATG.
    Happy to report that I had a GREAT shave. Thick lather and nice cushion. I could have skipped the ATG but the shave was so relaxing I couldn't quit. Thanks for the idea outback.
