Brilio.net - A thermos is a container designed to keep the drink inside hot. This will certainly be very useful when traveling or doing outdoor activities. By bringing a thermos, you can still have hot drinks at any time.
However, there are times when water or drinks stored in a thermos can cool quickly or change temperature. There are several factors that can cause the thermos to change temperature quickly. For example, the thermal part (the layer used to maintain temperature) is starting to wear out. Usually a number of people will dismantle the thermos and cover the thermos or tube inside with cloth.
Unfortunately, this method sometimes doesn't always work. After investigating, there are other factors that can also cause the thermos to change temperature quickly. One of them is caused by the condition of the thermos being dirty and not being cleaned for a long time.
Basically, a clean thermos can help maintain the heat of drinks or food for a longer period of time. The cleanliness of the thermos also plays a role in maintaining its thermal performance. If the flask is dirty or has residue, this can interfere with its thermal ability to maintain temperature.
To overcome this, you don't need to bother dismantling the thermos, you know. There are more practical tricks for cleaning a thermos so that it stays hot. Well, a TikTok user @asihbudypermadani once explained this trick further through one of the uploaded videos.
Tricks to make the thermos last longer hot.
Reported by BrilioFood on Friday (22/3), the TikTok user admitted that he only relied on one kitchen ingredient, namely rice.

Then, after leaving it overnight, throw in the hot water and rice. Then fill it again with hot water until it is full. After that, close the thermos and let it sit again for 2 hours. This will help neutralize any rice residue remaining in the thermos.
