Choosing small thermoses
Small thermoses deserve the closest attention from consumers. You need to figure out how to choose a small good mini thermos for tea. There are metal thermoses 250 ml, 350 ml and other models, which will be discussed in the article.
Characteristic
It should be said right away that a small thermos cannot be understood simply as a reduced model of an initially larger volume... Each such tank is specially designed (and manufactured). Of course, you cannot go on a long hike or water trip with such a capacity. And taking it on a car trip for a few days is also hardly practical. A small storage of drinks can only help out during a weekend hike.
Such models are convenient to take for long walks.
For example, if you suddenly come up with an idea to walk 10-20 km along the outskirts of your city or in a previously unfamiliar area. There will be no need to find a coffee shop, bar or similar establishment - everything will be at your fingertips. A mini thermos will also help out those who like to take hot drinks with them to work or to an educational institution - there will definitely be 1.5-2 liters of capacity there. Especially when you consider that you have to wear many other things.
Another similar device is an excellent alternative to a thermo mug. It allows you not to burn your lips with every sip. Metal mini-tanks are also suitable for equipping children going to school or a hobby group. They will become a faithful assistant and a professional driver who drives around the city, and a lover of cycling, and even connoisseurs of jogging. And just when you go to the park, for example, a 250 ml or 350 ml thermos turns out to be a very valuable help.
Model overview
Quite simple looking Thermos JBQ-400 nevertheless, it can confidently challenge many more elegant designs.A pair of silicone gaskets were installed in the lid, dramatically reducing the risk of spilling the drink. It is also worth emphasizing:
-
the ability to remove all parts (very useful in terms of washing and disinfection);
-
keeping warm up to 24 hours;
-
relatively decent internal volume;
-
a wide variety of color options.
Xiaomi Viomi Stainless Vacuum Cup - not just a beautiful thermos. It is made from premium grade 304 steel, which has proven itself very well in many applications. The manufacturer emphasizes that the lid can be opened with one hand. Even if the container is knocked over or shaken, the silicone protection works quite reliably. And also an important feature is the antibacterial coating of the inside of the flask.
The classic configuration is NOVA TOUR Solo 350. Both the shell and the bulb are made of selected steel. The developers have provided a strap for easy portability. Unladen weight of the product - 290 g. The design is recommended for use in winter.

Very small "Your day" holds only 200 ml. The flask is made of stainless steel. The body is made of plastic. The stated heat retention time is up to 6 hours. The design is suitable as a gift.
Choice
According to experts, the best and most compact form is a thermos in the "bullet" format. It will take up a minimum of space in backpacks, bags or bags. This performance is unlikely to affect functionality. A very useful additional option is a case with straps or carrying handles. And also it is worth paying attention to the appearance of the product, because it is often to be used in public places, and hardly anyone will like to blush about this.
The steel outer casing, as well as the steel inner chamber, are quite significant advantages.
This solution is much better than plastic (outside) and glass (inside). But it is also very important to check how well a particular thermos keeps the temperature, whether the lid opens and closes well. It is useful to read the reviews of a particular model before purchasing. In case of any doubts, an official certificate of quality should be required and carefully studied.
Even if the small thermos is only for drinking tea, ideally it should be made of stainless steel rather than aluminum. If the preservation of temperature is in the first place, then a glass flask is preferable. High-quality dishes should not have foreign odors - both inside and out. One-handed opening can be both an advantage and a disadvantage. The fact is that due to this option, some models often spill liquid.
And you should also pay attention to:
-
design;
-
the time over which the temperature will change;
-
the presence of a valve cover (which will not allow the liquid to spill, but it will be quite convenient);
-
price (very cheap models are hardly good).
