Esbit Food Jug 0.5 l Olive Green

Food Jug thermoses are designed to carry food. The offered model has excellent thermal insulation (for hot as well as cold substances) with high resistance to mechanical damage. The matt non-slip coating gives a firm grip even with thick gloves. Inside, the thermos is coated with a thin layer of silver - this has an antibacterial effect and makes it easier to maintain hygienic cleanliness.

To make the most of the properties offered by its food thermos, Esbit suggests "formatting" the thermos before use. If you plan to transport hot items - before placing them in the thermos, fill it with hot water for about 4 minutes, then pour out the water and place the food. Do the same for cold items (fill the thermos with very cold water). This ensures that the desired temperature is maintained for longer. 

A noteworthy solution is the use of a safety valve button in the design of the cap - pressing it before unscrewing the cap releases the excess pressure (often generated during the storage of a hot meal/liquid) virtually eliminating the risk of "shooting" the cap or hot steam, sometimes accompanied by hot contents splashing to the sides.

The contents (water, 98ºC) were at temperature after:
* 6 hours - 70ºC
* 12 hours - 60ºC
* 24 hours - 40ºC
The test was conducted at 20ºC (+/- 2ºC).
