I just gave up on Williams today! I had 2 pucks grated and pressed into a cup. I finally got to the point of getting good lathers out of it consistently but lately I looked at the puck and was thinking that it was going to last me forever since I only needed a 15 second load time to get more lather than I needed. Also, while I was shaving with it I started asking myself why I was using Williams when I liked everything about my other soaps (Prorasos red, green & white and a jar of Biotique Bio Palmyra) better and all of them were easier to lather than Williams. The only thing Williams had over my other soaps was that it was much cheaper. I had my "life is too short" moment then I plopped the puck out of the cup and assigned it to the shower where it will be my body bar of soap until it's gone. I had been using Williams exclusively for around a month and a half and I'm looking forward to getting back to the Prorasos and Biotique.
