Hello,
Has anyone else experienced this with this particular soap?
BTW, these granules do NOT dissolve.

I've never seen that on any soap. Weird. Does it affect he performance?

If you don't mind lathering with pumice, then no.

Not ready to give up on this soap, so I decided to attempt to sieve out the granules. Using a fairly fine strainer, I took about a tablespoon at a time of the soap and pressed it through with my fingers. I then scraped the sieved soap off of the bottom of the strainer with a butter knife. I got about 90%+ out of the soap.

You will notice that the soap was significantly softer afterwards. Shaved with it today and the results were 1000% more satisfying.

Glad to hear you fixed the problem Primo!

Have had a few soaps with this issue and from my understanding it is steric acid that seperates from the rest of the soap. Can be a pain to clean from brushes as well.
