Brilio.net - Thermos is used to store water, both hot and cold. This household appliance is specially designed so that the temperature of the drink inside does not change. Therefore, the water in the thermos remains hot even if it is kept for hours.
However, if a thermos has been used for too long, its quality can decrease, you know. Usually the heat temperature is not as long lasting as when the thermos was first purchased. Some people even claim that their hot water turns cold even though they have only been kept for 1 hour in a thermos.
If you know the trick, water in a thermos can actually stay hot for weeks, you know. How to make a thermos last longer has been shown by YouTube users CREATIVE IDEAS. Through his video uploads, this netizen appears to be relying on simple tools, without capital, aka only IDR 0.
Curious about how?
The way you store water in a thermos is to keep it hot for weeks.
The first step, turn the bottom of the thermos by hand. If it is loose, pull the bottom of the thermos until it opens. Then slowly remove the inside of the thermos bottle so it doesn't break.

Then wipe the entire bottle with a cloth. If so, take a piece of cloth that is no longer used and wrap it around the thermos bottle. Well, the only tool needed for this process is a piece of used cloth.
"The function of this cloth is so that the thermos is tightly sealed so the heat lasts," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube CREATIVE IDE on Thursday (18/4).

If so, close the bottom of the thermos again as before. Because it is wrapped in a piece of cloth, the bottle in the thermos is installed tightly and perfectly. This is clearly visible on the top of the thermos.
This is where the valve at the top is tight, OK? We also shook the thermos, we didn't hear anything else. "This proves that the water we pour in it will be very durable, even for weeks," said the owner of the video.

How to care for a thermos so it doesn't leak easily.
To care for your thermos so it doesn't leak easily, you can do the following steps.
1. Choose a quality thermos.
Choose a thermos made from high quality and durable materials. Also make sure the lid is made of strong and tight material.
2. Check and clean regularly.
Check the thermos periodically to ensure there are no cracks or damage to the lid or body of the thermos. Clean the thermos regularly in the right way to prevent the formation of scale or mold which can cause leaks.
3. Use it correctly.
Use the thermos according to the instructions for use. Don't open the lid of the thermos too often, as this can cause the seal to become loose and increase the risk of leaks.
4. Don't overfill.
Avoid filling the thermos too full, because the pressure from too much liquid can cause leaks.
5. Avoid excessive heating.
Do not heat the thermos to a temperature that is too high, because this can damage the thermos material and cause leaks.
If possible, use an additional lid or protector for the thermos to make it safer from the possibility of being dropped or pressed which could cause a leak.
