However, some people complain that their stainless steel thermoses break down quickly, often due to leaks that cause the water to leak easily and cool quickly. To solve this problem, you can watch a video from YouTube user Gio Kabayan titled 'QUICKLY REPAIRING A HOT WATER THERMOS'. This video explains how to fix a stainless steel thermos and the causes of leaks.
As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Gio Kabayan on Tuesday (10/12), the cause of the leak in the thermos could be from the loose lid. So the pump on the thermos lid cannot be locked properly when pressed. Well, this is what then makes the water in the thermos easy to leak when the thermos is upside down or tilted.

To fix it, disassemble the thermos lid. Then check the bottom of the thermos lid. Usually there is a clear rubber seal and a round rotary button on that part.

Well, remove the rubber. Then turn the knob. The leak in the thermos turned out to come from the improper rotation of the thermos cap. Therefore, keep turning it while pressing the thermos pump.

In addition to the improper rotation of the thermos, leaks can occur due to crust inside the thermos lid machine. To clean it, you simply soak the part in really boiling hot water. That way, the crust and dirt inside the machine will soften and come out by themselves.

For the final step, reinstall the rubber on the thermos round. Then press the thermos pump. If it is no longer stuck, it means the thermos can function as before. You can reinstall this machine on the thermos.
"Make sure the rubber is tight, okay? So if we do it like this (inverted), the water will not seep or leak down," he explained further.
