I'm using the same soap while traveling, which lends itself to little mini experiments.
Today was "would it work to load a bit of soap for each pass instead of doing one big load"?
The answer is yes. I'm of the opinion that's how people did it in the old days, and that's based solely on my experience using modern Williams Mug Soap... Hardly a good reason to come to this conclusion, but Williams works well with this technique.
That's my technique with boars. I load a little for every pass.
Part of the reason I tried it was for speed. It seemed to go faster than dialing in a proper load.
This makes a lot of sense, I'm going to try it out tonight.
