Hi col conk what would be the best way to lather with your product?
I thank you for your patronage!got a Amazon 4 pack and had first shave with it
I love the scent as its not so in your face ! not a fan of the overdone scents that some companies are doing since I have allergies and sensitive skin
first shave was OK (which means went well) a few more to dial in since my hard water is a pain to deal with
for the money think this is going to be a great soap in my hunt for just narrowing down to the few I plan on as my main soaps
I was just going to post this same thing. I enjoyed their soaps early in my shave career. Had a bunch of different Conk soaps. Then moved on to other types of non-glycerin soaps. But one rainy day I got the bug, and grated up a bunch of Conk, Arko stubs and Williams and made a couple of different Frankensoaps. That made for some slick soaps with interesting scents.
Be careful if microwaving; too much head will damage the soap.what is the best way to melt it into another larger container Was thinking of just microwaving on low a bit or ?
ahh yeah double boiler sounds good idea and would workBe careful if microwaving; too much head will damage the soap.
I melt it by putting a pot on to boil water. I put the puck in a measuring cup and submerge the bottom portion of the measuring cup into the water and stir the soap until completely melted. Then quickly pour into the container of choice.
Exactly this. This is precisely how I tell people to do it. This keeps the heat to a minimum and minimizes the chances of cooking off ingredients. The double-boil method is recommended but this way also works in a pinch.My process is: 8-10 sec burst on about 50-70% power, then stir; repeat as needed. Once it starts to melt, you're done.
Awesome! I am so glad to hear that you are enjoying it!The Col Conk Unscented is fast becoming my favorite soap and I‘ll be sad to reach the end of it. I think I like it even more than ARKO! for some reason. I have to retry the Bay Rum with the ”a little more soap and a lot more water method that makes the other two soaps precious gems. And then the lime, amber, and almond scents…
Saw your name pop up yesterday newish here to my daughter has pet rats so the name caught my eye hahahahaBeen using Conk soaps for years. The glycerin soaps make my skin feel great afterwards.
I seem to get the best result from blooming the soap, then using the bloom water as a preshave.
I also have an old bottle of the lime aftershave. Gives a good burn, and I love that scent!
