https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/boar-brush-prep-why-refrigerate.579612/page-5Gentlemen, what you have been doing to your brushes in refrigators was definitely wrong. I know many of you guys have watched the old mantic59 video in which a gentleman talks about boar brushes being the best and they would leave it in "COLD WATER" for 2-3 days, and then they would start using. Shortly after this video there occured a reddit post saying that "Break-in in refrigator actually works". But this is DEFINITELY NOT what that gentleman in the video or the other Italian barbers do. There he says "ACQUA FREDDA". In translation it may sound "cold water", I agree, but the Italian word "Acqua Fredda" means just usual TAP WATER. "Acqua fredda" can be anything but hot water. So, you put your brush in "acqua fredda" without putting it in refrigator, you change the water in it in order to avoid bacterias etc. If it stinks you give it a lather 2-3 times, and then you put it in water again. You just repeat the cycle for 72hrs. And then, when the time is completed, you take it out and give it a good rub on towel as you would do on a harsh face. And that's it. The whole "refrigator" thing was wrong. It may work for you now, but you CAN NOT know what will happen in the future.
