I'm on well water that is very hard. Soap scum builds up on everything! Just rinsing well with clear water after shaving helps, but the build up continues. When I can see the build-up on my brush or the brush's performance drops noticeably, I lather the brush in some Neutrogena Anti-Residue shampoo. It's formulated to remove soap scum and mineral build-up from the hair on your head, so I figure it shouldn't be too harsh on the brush. I only need to do this every couple of months or so. It seem to bring my badger brushes back to new with no adverse effects. YMMV, of course!
