Hey fella, nice to see you posting here.
Yeah, I recognized him as well and agree.

My home forum will always be The Shave Den. Sometimes it gets a little slow and then I revisit all my other forums.Yeah, I recognized him as well and agree.
I looked into it a bit more. From what I've been able to find, the biggest concern is that it will pull moisture from it's surroundings as it thaws. So yes to the vacuum seal bags, and you would want to let it come back to room temperature before unsealing the bag.12 years ago, when I stored my soaps food vacuum sealers were not as pedestrian as they are now. Reading one Reddit poster, he cut a kilo of soap into portions and vacuum sealed them for the long term. That would work I would guess even better than my freezer bags though I would still wrap the portions in wax paper. Airtight storage, placed in a plastic bin and stored in a cool, dry, dark place and I'd think that would work for a decade. I'm a bit leery of deep freeze storage because of how damaging long term freezer storage can be with food and I'd wonder if it might affect the soap over so long a time.
I'd like to preserve some tallow shaving soaps since they seem to be going the way of the advent calendar (their days are numbered)
Hi there,My home forum will always be The Shave Den.
I think I joined in 2010, lurked for quite a while before that. Between her failing eyesight, and caring for her special needs daughter, JoAnna doesn't post much, but she still keeps an eye on things over there.Hi there,
I enjoyed my time over there a long time ago and even when I went away her soap was still being ordered. Yeah, I liked it a good bit. Sue at Mama Bear was a hot selling item at that time. Matter of fact, I mighta been around when you joined there. I remember JoAnna being an active owner/forum participant, which was unusual back then
It's my second all around favorite shaving forum, and I normally visit it 8-10 times a year.

I like the smaller forums where I know everyone and can keep up with the posts.
Wow. Blast from the past. I tried to join that forum about 15 years ago, never got the registration email to activate my account and eventually joined other forums.Yes, but for pure knowledge http://forum.shavemyface.com/ has an archive akin to the lost library of Alexandria. For quite some time it has basically become a "tomb" with a few ol' geezers posting drivel, but back in the day.... As well, Badger & Blade, before it became a commercial cesspool ruled by EMO incels, was great as well.
