. Scraper, we are on the same page brother. Satanic rituals made me spit up  my coffee because it is accurate. I kind of have to jump through hoops to get a lather. Hesitant to get it out because of the effort. Sad because it is very slick. Foamy for me.

Reading through through all the hoopla about dodgy pucks on another forum is the only reason I dug it back out for one more try. All that experiment did was confirm that, yes, you and I both got dodgy pucks. Something happened, and Mitchell’s ain’t talkin’. Today’s lather was exactly as you described…slick but foamy. Almost like a dry foam appearance. Whether MWF gets another shot someday remains to be seen. There are so many awesome soap makers out there, rolling the dice on another Fat seems kinda silly. Hopefully, whatever happened to that/those batch(es) are behind them, because Mitchell’s really does make some outstanding products.
Face S, as per your post, I used the Fat one last time. Dry foam. Slick but it was thin and transparent and I loaded like a crazed dwarf. Going to use this guy as bar soap. May try again per knowledge of batch improvement.

Well, we gave it the ol’ Boy Scout try, didn’t we? Even modern Williams lathers like a champ compared to these dud Fat pucks, and that ain’t sayin’ much. Pity, as when you have a normal quality MWF, it performs right there with the best of ‘em.
