Finally got the full experience of the new base (full sized tub, face lather...) and I wonder... how much water can it hold :D I don't remember having to add water so many times though the brush with other soaps, and probably I could have kept doing it more times.

Beautiful!

Indeed, I feel like I should start dipping my brush in a water tank rather than a mug, such is the amount of water this base can hold!

Brush: Zenith Boar
Razor: Merkur 39C
Blade: Rapira Super Stainless (1)
Post: Jojoba Oil
AS: Pb The Black Spruce
Forgotten how creamy this lather is. Rapira Stainless worked well with the 39C. How do others find the Super Stainless compared to the Platinum Lux? Might have to buy 100 of these. Looking forward to getting home to my own bed. The one in our apartment is proving to be more torture than rest.
