About this deal

Available in a range of colours (we like the electric blue), the flask is highly suitable for camping trips and general travelling refreshments. Pouring is very easy due to the superb flexible handle fabricated from silicone. A solid performer in testing, SHO’s food flask kept water chilled for the advertised 20 hours and even managed to keep a portion of ice cream very cold, albeit a little melted, for the same period of time. Similarly, it kept hot food such as pasta piping hot over a period of 10 hours. The flask’s design also proved practical as well as stylish, with neat touches including a handy foldable spork, which stores in its lid, and a rubber carry handle. While the 530ml version is suitable for single portions, those of you looking to share may want to opt for the more roomy 800ml option. As we said before, the Milu is more bowl-shaped and can easily be eaten from directly. The 6.6cm wide opening is extremely convenient for easy filling and eating as well. The 18-8 flask is from the renowned brand Stanley. Stanley has been serving people since 1913 and this model is truly legendary. No other brand apart from Thermos themselves can boast such heritage. Dimensions The GSI MicroLite 1000 Twist Water Bottle is a vacuum insulated stainless steel flask that has a one litre capacity but impressively small size and density. It is extremely lightweight at 0.37kg which is less than half the weight of the Stanley 18-8 for the same capacity.

You can leave your house with a full bottle of coffee on Friday evening and can have a nice walk with a cup of hot coffee on your weekend destination even on Saturday evening! You will definitely get a duration of 24 hours, and this model performs equally well for hot and cold temperature contents. In Use The best thermos flasks can keep liquids hot or cold for a long time – over 12 hours in some cases. Look for a two-layer construction with an intermediate vacuum layer. This prevents heat loss by convection and conduction. Insulated cup: Good flasks also pay attention to the insulation of the detachable cup, if they have one. This is so your drink stays warm while you’re drinking it. Meanwhile, the outside stays cool, so you don’t risk burnt hands.If you’re after a large flask, the Oneisall 2L is a great stainless steel option with a lovely ergonomic design. This is a high-quality two litre flask which is capable of serving drinks for the whole family – great to bring along for day trips in the car or campervan. The Smardy flask is manufactured with high-quality stainless steel that makes it extremely durable and we are confident it will perform well over the long-term. It utilizes a silver coat in the vacuum portion of the flask which enhances heat retention. Slurping soup is great fun from the Milu – in fact, we’ve started using it at home because it keeps your minestrone piping hot, unlike a cold china bowl from the cupboard. Heat Retention is a major factor determining the usefulness of a thermos flask. It directly affects how long your drinks or food will stay warm or cold.

The GSI employs a thin but reliable stainless steel wall that reduces the weight and also increases the internal space of the bottle. According to GSI, you can store 25% more liquid than any other flask for the same size. Whether it’s a chunky “food flask”, sleek “vacuum bottle” or something in between, the job of a flask is to keep food and drink hot or cold without leaking, all day long. Some of the winners on our list can insulate for more than 24 hours, which is long enough to survive the toughest hike or most gruelling commute.

Heat and cold retention is exemplary, with the Thermos lasting well over 24 hours for both. We found that it is particularly effective for cold drinks, with ice cubes still being solid after a 30 hour test we performed. Thermos have obviously squeezed out all routes for heat to get into the inner chamber of the flask. The Oneisall measures 34.5 x 11.5 x 11.5 cm and weighs 1.2kg. For a large capacity flask, those are not actually bad specifications. And it really does look the business! Beautiful lines as they say! If you are searching for a great value thermos flask at the lower end of the budget range then we don’t think you can do much better than the SMARDY Vacuum Insulated Water Bottle. This is a compact size flask with a smallish capacity of 430ml – this is only enough for two cups of tea.

The Milu Thermo Food Flask is a bowl-shape flask (16 x 10 cm) that is not only useful for keeping your drinks hot/cold, but also certain types of liquid-based food. You can keep soup, rice, noodles, fruits and even baby food in this great flask. All parents know that it’s often a problem carrying baby food at the right temperature. The 450ml flask Milu is a great solution to the problem. All materials on the Stanley are very robust and have a quality utilitarian feel to them. You can be assured that the food-grade stainless steel used on the Stanley won’t give a metallic taste to your drinks at all, but offers excellent heat retention.

If you take your thermos flask to the local coffee shop and ask them to fill it up instead of having your drink served in a disposable coffee cup with plastic lid then you will be reducing the amount of landfill and waste material which gets produced from these establishments. Win win in our books! Why ‘Thermos’? Some thermos flasks are designed to be handily-sized for solo use on hikes and outdoor adventures. Others are larger for bigger groups or car and campervan travel. Choose wisely, or get a couple for different activities. In terms of heat retention, it is excellent. Starting with hot water at 95 ℃, you can expect it to drop to around 60 ℃ after 12 hours, 51 ℃ after 24 hours and 40 ℃ after 36 hours. Pretty incredible. A Thermos King will last years but it’s not officially dishwasher-safe, and you’re not even meant to submerge it in water (if you do, you kill the manufacturer’s 50-year guarantee). Inquisitive users report that it does survive the dishwasher intact, albeit with peeling colour.

Nothing beats a hot brew when you’re tramping around the hills on a winter hike. It’s like we’re hard-wired to appreciate that soothing warmth spreading around our bodies like a “Ready Brek” glow. A range of scientific research has shown that BPA can seep into food or beverages and potentially cause a range of issues for the brains of fetuses, infants and children. Additional research suggests a possible link between BPA and increased blood pressure. Thermos flasks use an ingenious mechanism which consists of dual layers separated by a vacuum cavity between them. The vacuum is a region of space with no air or anything at all in it – this creates a natural barrier to heat leaving or entering the innermost chamber holding your drink. That’s why liquids in the flask remain hot or cold for longer than they would in a standard plastic bottle. In terms of tech, the Oneisall employs a copper-coated layer outside of the vacuum space which ensures that the flask keeps your drinks hot without any heat reaching the outer surface.

About Millets

It’s 100% leak proof – no matter how hard we tried, we couldn’t get any liquid to escape and the automatic opening trigger means you can drink from it one-handed with ease. Finally, there’s an additional loop handle on top so it can easily be attached to bags or simply carried this way. All in all, this is brilliantly stylish and robust The downside of this approach is that a high capacity flask will be big and bulky. There’s no getting away from it. However, if you’re able to split your gear equally between all members of the team (e.g. one walker carries lunch, another carries the picnic blanket etc) then overall you will use less space than if you each carried smaller flasks.
