Product Information

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. 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. 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. Depending on your preference, you can add sugar at this point and mix by swirling the tea for approximately 30 seconds. Use a long spoon or gently roll the flask between your palms to swirl the water. All the neggy nancys. I think it’s a brill idea! I am a cuppa tea lover so boil the kettle many times a day too. Thank you xx", wrote a fourth.

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. 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. Since the American manufacturer, Thermos, came to fame, the term has become slang for vacuum-insulated flasks. Although the terms are largely interchangeable, the original scientific phrasing is 'vacuum flask'. 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. You may not have heard of ‘BPA’, but in a similar way to aluminium in camping kettles, it should be avoided when you’re looking for a thermos flask. BPA stands for Bisphenol A, and it’s a chemical which has been used to make certain plastics and resins since the 1960s, and was commonly found in thermos flasks.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. Button-operated lids are more efficient to use than twist-and-pour stoppers – we found the button-operated lids to be more secure than the twist-and-pour stoppers.

You may think choosing a vacuum flask is a simple matter of grabbing the shiniest example in the camping shop (if it’s open!) and hoping for the best. Well, unfortunately we’ve tried that approach several times and have frequently been disappointed. 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.Warranty: We always suggest buying a vacuum flask from a manufacturer who will offer a warranty of at least one year, and preferably more. A warranty acts as a safeguard for your flask against unexpected defects, and ensures that you won’t have to buy again if something goes wrong. If you’re planning on spending a wodge of cash on a flask, then go for the one with the warranty. Typical Heat Retention Times That being said, we found that performance was not quite as good as a dedicated drinks flask – the Milu will keep your hot drinks hot for six hours and the cold ones for 10 hours. For this reason, it is essential to clean the flask after every use. If your flask came with a user manual, follow those instructions but otherwise just give it a good rinse with some dishwashing liquid and water (make sure that no dishwashing residues remain behind). Also, allow the flask to dry properly before you close the lid and store it. A moist interior could also cause a bad taste the next time you make some tea.
