Hold up, I see this totally different. That sounds like you're not adding any water as you go. My lather only dies if I treat it like a set it and forget it thing. Try dripping a few drops on your brush before the second pass, then work it in again. Your soap might just be thirstier than you think.

Hold on, you actually boil water inside the bottle? Isn't that bad for the plastic? I'd be scared it would melt!

Seriously, how do you even manage to fry a circuit board like that?

Sand and compost, mixed deep, changed everything.

When I use aftermarket seals on warranty jobs, I always verify the pressure and temperature ratings match the OEM specs. Keeping a simple note of the part number and where I bought it covers me if questions come up later. A proper install that holds without leaks is what really matters in the end.
