  • @KeminmaanKauhu the vacuum is between the layers of steal as an insulation. no air between the layers = no heat transfer. vacuum thermoses are far better then foam insulated thermoses

  • i love the way he explains just what a kettle is :P

  • Doesnt the boiling water turn the thermos into pressure vessel rather than vacuum container? i just cant see how the vacuum would form other than after the water is cooled totally and that would create sort of vacuum.. but even after that the cooking would be definately done.. so wont be effecting the cooking process.. also if there would be incredibly hard to open the thermos with even slightest vacuum inside..

  • I'm definitely going to try this. Already have a stainless steel Thermos and an electric kettle around the kitchen.

    Thank you very much! :-)

  • my mind is blown! looks like a great way to put together food for on the go.

  • Brilliant Video! I love the way the guy introduced us to "an electric kettle" as if we would have never seen one before, and they are a real rarity.

    Still a great video.

    Hi gnotie, getting the food out can be challenging :) But to clean the thermos, try using a bottle cleaning brush. You can get them for about $2... it's a wide brush that's designed to reach down into a space like that. Another tip is, after scooping the food out, fill the thermos with hot water and soap (and some cleaning vinegar) and shake it violently for a while. And to prevent odors, soak it once a week in water and baking soda.

  • Sounds good, but it's INCREDIBLY hard to get the food out of the narrow thermos and to clean that thermos.

  • Awesome idea! I'm going to try this and also try it on our next camping trip. Thx for sharing your tips and instruction!

  • Props for linking to Kurt Saxon. I started cooking irish oatmeal, beans, and lentils thanks to this method he came up with. His site's down, I assume he is dead.
