He has probably 300+ soaps accumulated.
Anyone getting bubbly lather from MdC?
Nope, not in almost 3 years of using MdC. I view MdC as one of the easiest to lather soaps I've ever tried (I own Maca Root, wasn't impressed, gave it to my wife...) and one pretty much has to go out of their way IMO to mess up the lather of MdC. Of course, as always, YMMV.
Seems like an act to prove a point. I doubt it's anything malicious but it's a bit over dramatic.

So maybe his problem is the lathering technique and i was just oversuspicious.
Using the cream he gets thicker lather since creams are easier to load product. It's possible.
Mix a Haslinger sheep with whatever scented Stirling you’ve got.honestly only soap i buy now is Haslinger and Stirling (re-fill pucks only),
but Speick Cream is slowly becoming my go to soap.
+1.That lather he got from MdC looks dismal. I'd have to go out of my way with MdC to get poor results like that.

Sorry, but what is MdL?

I am not familiar with american soaps, so i went to his video gallery to find something more familiar to me. And i did. TOBS:

This is his 1st pass with TOBS. I am sorry, but you can't blame any soap based on his reviews. I can't sit for hours to watch all his video gallery, but this is like the "anti-MdL". The exact opposite of our MdL. MdL makes plaster lather, this one makes evanescent lather. I don't know if he just doesn't load enough or if he pours too much water, but that's not normal lather for TOBS! And i bet i have much harder water than he does!
I can build 4 times better lather than that with the EUR 1.30 Figaro croap.
But if he's used to thin lather, why did it suddenly became a problem?
BTW some shavers consider that lather preferable.
Let's say that if IAMBC met MdL and joined lathers, one would have a normal lather as a result.
I think he overdid it this time with MdC... The better question would be: Why didn't he just make 10 more swirls in the jar, instead of throwing the towel immediately and just run to Maca root...
Nah. Just slightly wetter plaster.
That's what he advises beginners in his tutorials. Don't shy to get back to the puck.
