I am a little disappointed that I cannot get my Cella cream to lather in the scuttle, even with lesser hot water. It's either too dry and nothing to the lather, or watery foam that will not firm up a bit even after several arm numbing minutes of swirling. There is no in between, the lather even starts to dry during the lathering process itself. Just to make sure I wasn't crazy, I lathered my Haslinger soap in the scuttle with the hottest tap water we get, and it exploded with wonderful creaminess as usual. By the second pass, I took the lid off the scuttle and most of the lather had dried. A dab of water and 20 sec of swirling and the Haslinger soap was good and creamy again. Too bad the Cella won't take... I will settle for room temp shaves with it because I love it too much to give it up. Has anyone successfully lathered Cella or a similar cream and have it survive well in a hot scuttle?
